“…Tilapia lake virus (TiLV) was first identified in wild and farm‐raised tilapia showing clinical signs of skin discoloration, ocular alterations and lethargy in Israel (Eyngor et al., ). Subsequently, TiLV was found in many countries including Ecuador (Bacharach et al., ), Colombia (Kembou Tsofack et al., ), Egypt (Fathi et al., ; Nicholson et al., ), Thailand (Dong et al., ; Surachetpong et al., ), India (Behera et al., ), Indonesia (Koesharyani, Gardenia, Widowati, Khumaira, & Rustianti, ), Uganda and Tanzania (Mugimba et al., ), and Malaysia (Amal et al., ).
