Abstract A comparative search for the shrimp most suitable for mariculture in Israel has led to the import of exotic species. Unfortunately, these shrimp were carriers of at least three pathogenic viruses. Infectious Hypodermal and Hematopoietic Necrosis (IHHN) virus, Hepatopancreatic Parvo-like Virus (HPV) and Monodon-type Baculovirus (MBV) caused cross-infections among both imported and local penaeids. Since these episodes, general disinfection operations were carried out and quarantine measures were strictly enforced for any newcomers.
