In a colony of New World monkeys five tamarins (Saguinus oedipus, Saguinus labiatus and Leontopithecus rosal. rosal.), three marmosets (Callithrix jacchus and Callithrix pygmaea) and one saki (Pithecia pithecia) died suddenly. The colony comprised 16 marmosets, 10 tamarins and three sakis. The main pathological findings were necrotic lesions in the lung, the intestine, and the liver. Histopathologically T. gondii parasites were observed in organs from the tamarins and the marmosets but not in the saki. Some considerations on epidemiology are presented. Preventive measures were directed against the bottom layer of the cages, on cockroach extermination, and on freezing of raw meat.
在一群新大陆猴中，5只绢毛猴（白领伶猴、白唇伶猴和赤掌柽柳猴指名亚种）、3只狨猴（普通狨和侏狨）和1只僧面猴突然死亡。该猴群由16只狨猴、10只绢毛猴和3只僧面猴组成。主要病理发现为肺、肠和肝脏的坏死性病变。组织病理学检查在绢毛猴和狨猴的器官中观察到刚地弓形虫寄生虫，但在僧面猴中未观察到。文中提出了一些关于流行病学的思考。预防措施针对笼舍底层、蟑螂灭除以及生肉冷冻。
