Abstract

A Napoleon fish (Cheilinus undulatus) was infected with both an acid-fast bacterium and an imperfect fungus. This is the first report of an acid-fast bacterial infection in Cheilinus undulatus, and the first observation of an imperfect fungus in the swim bladder of a tropical marine fish.
