AB Snakeskin gourami is among a few native species of Southeast Asia that has a long cultural history with Thailand is the biggest producer. Diseases are among the major setbacks in the farming of this species. However, studies of disease occurrence in snakeskin gourami are still very scarce. In the present study, we describe firstly, the systemic pathology caused by a novel Chlamydia-like organism (CLO) and comment on the gill parasite Henneguya sp. (Myxosporea, Myxobolidae) infecting the same fish, based on molecular analysis and histopathology observations.Competing Interest StatementThe authors have declared no competing interest.
