Pulmonary aspergillosis in a great rhea (Rhea americana).

Elizabeth Chang Reissig1, Francisco A Uzal, Adriana Schettino, Carlos A Robles.   

Abstract

A 5-mo-old great rhea (Rhea americana) gradually became emaciated over a 1-wk period and died. Necropsy revealed several small yellow nodules in the lungs. Microscopically, the nodules consisted of granulomas containing numerous thin, 4-microm-diameter, septate, branching fungal hyphae. Aspergillus fumigatus grew readily on Sabouraud dextrose agar. This report appears to be the first of mycotic pneumonia in great rheas.
