England: Infection with Bonamia exitiosa 
England: Infection Bonamia exitiosa on wild oysters (Ostrea edulis )
Location: Turnaware Bar - River Fal, Cornwall ,
Start Date: December 6, 2010
Date of first confirmation: 21 February 2011
Affected population: A wild population of Ostrea edulis. Samples were made because of the oysters collected in this area were in poor condition and not due to an associated mortality. The oysters were small, showed a loss of fluid and did not close. On three of the 30 oysters sampled, parasites like Bonamia were observed by histological examination. PCR and gene sequencing confirmed the results obtained by histological examination:
- A case of Bonamia (already present and controlled in this area)
- A case of Bonamia exitiosa
- A case inconclusive It is unclear if the bad state of health of oysters can be attributed to Bonamia exitiosa. On February 21, 2011, IFREMER (Reference Laboratory of the EU) has confirmed the presence of B. exitiosa in an animal.
Other Epidemiological comments: B. ostreae was already present in the area. Once the suspicion of the presence of B. exitiosa established, travel restrictions were applied to all mollusc species and the initial measures extend across the estuary of the River Fal.
The current regulations prohibit all movement of shellfish to, from and within the control area and provides that the dead molluscs are removed using an approved method for removing waste products from animals of Category 2.
This population of O. edulis may have been under stress due to dredging of the area during the summer of 2010 to manage a problem of red algae.
