Based on the literature data, the outbreaks of new zoonoses caused by new members of the family Paramyxoviridae are briefly presented. Some characteristics of Hendra and Nipah virus, epidemiological aspects, clinical picture and pathology are described. Fruit bats are mentioned as the key to the epidemiology of Hendra virus. The virus was isolated from affected humans, horses, and from the uterine fluids of a grey-headed fruit bat (pteropus poliocephalus).
