. Strains of Yersinia ruckeri , the enteric redmouth (ERM) bacterium, show greater serological diversity than previously supposed. A distinct sub–group of the otherwise homogeneous serovar I (Hagerman) strains includes the salmonid blood spot (SBS) bacterium. Two other new serological varieties, serovars IV and V, have been designated.
