abstract
Viral particles associated with malignant catarrhal fever in white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) and axis deer (Asix axis) are described. Morphologically, the virus resembled the togaviruses and was unlike the herpesvirus which causes wildebeest-associated malignant catarrhal fever (snotsiekte).
