In 1990, Salmonella enteritidis phage type 4 was recovered from two young (less than 20-week-old) lilac-crowned Amazon parrots (Amazona finschi Schlater), one in Tennessee and one in Kansas. The parrot from Tennessee was treated for a plugged naris and anorexia before the S. enteritidis infection was discovered. The parrot from Kansas exhibited signs of septicemia and died within 24 hours of examination. An apparently healthy green-cheeked conure (Pyrrhura molinae) on the same premises as the parrot from Tennessee was positive for S. enteritidis phage type 4 on a cloacal swab. These are the first reported cases of avian infection with S. enteritidis phage type 4 in the United States. Because several infectious agents were present simultaneously in the Amazon parrots, it was difficult to determine the precise role of S. enteritidis phage type 4 in the clinical presentations.
1990年，从两只年幼（不到20周龄）的淡紫色凤头亚马逊鹦鹉（Amazona finschi Schlater）体内分离出肠炎沙门氏菌4型噬菌体，一只来自田纳西州，另一只来自堪萨斯州。田纳西州的那只鹦鹉在肠炎沙门氏菌感染被发现之前，因鼻孔堵塞和厌食接受了治疗。堪萨斯州的那只鹦鹉表现出败血症症状，并在检查后24小时内死亡。与田纳西州那只鹦鹉在同一饲养场所的一只看似健康的绿颊锥尾鹦鹉（Pyrrhura molinae），泄殖腔拭子检测显示肠炎沙门氏菌4型噬菌体呈阳性。这些是美国首次报告的鸟类感染肠炎沙门氏菌4型噬菌体的病例。由于亚马逊鹦鹉体内同时存在几种感染因子，因此很难确定肠炎沙门氏菌4型噬菌体在临床表现中的确切作用。
