Pseudotuberculosis caused by Yersinia enterocolitica was observed as an enzootic disease of the owl monkey (Aotus trivirgatus). A description is given of the natural disease and its successful reproduction in owl monkeys. The disease was characterized by purulent and necrotizing enteritis, hepatitis, and splenitis. Large colonies of the causative organism were consistently associated with the lesions. Although pseudotuberculosis has been reported in other monkeys, the disease in the authors' primate colonies has been restricted to the owl monkey.
小肠结肠炎耶尔森菌引起的假结核被视作夜猴（Aotus trivirgatus）的一种地方病。本文描述了该病在夜猴中的自然发病情况及其成功复制。该病的特征为化脓性和坏死性肠炎、肝炎及脾炎。致病生物的大量菌落始终与病变相关。尽管其他猴子中也有假结核的报道，但作者灵长类动物群落中的这种疾病仅限于夜猴。
