Abstract
Avibacterium paragallinarum is the causative agent of infectious coryza, an acute respiratory disease of chickens. In this study, a total of 28 isolates of A. paragallinarum from Ecuador were serotyped by the hemagglutinin scheme which recognizes nine serovars. Out of 28 isolates, 17 isolates belonged to serovar A-3, and five isolates to each serovars B-1 and C-1, whereas one isolate was non-typeable. This is the first report of A. paragallinarum serovar A-3 outside Brazil and serovar C-1 outside Japan.
