Abstract

We herein report biomolecular evidence of Dolphin Morbillivirus (DMV) in 4 wild Eurasian otters (Lutra lutra) from Southern Italy, with simultaneous immunohistochemical reactivity against morbilliviral antigen in two animals. These cases of infection add further concern and support to the progressively expanding host range of DMV in the Western Mediterranean.
