Hunt d0 aSjamsul Bahri b aAustralian-Indonesian collaboration in veterinary development programs has led to significant advances in the study of arboviruses. This paper reviews the resulting knowledge of arboviral infec- tions of livestock in Indonesia. The first recognized arboviral disease of animals in Indonesia was bovine ephemeral fever. Serology indicates that the virus is widespread, as are related rhabdoviruses. Local sheep appear resistant to bluetongue disease, but imported sheep have suffered mortalities. Bluetongue viral serotypes 1.7.9. 12, 21 and 23 have been isolated from sentinel cattle; 1.21 and 23 at widely separate locations. Bluetongue serotype 21 has been isolated from Ctcficoides spp. Serolog- ical reactors to Akabane virus are widespread, as are reactors to the flavivirus group. Japanese encephalitis. isolated from sentinel pigs, is the flavivirus of most veterinary importance but the limit of its easterly distribution is unknown. Many of the arboviruses present in Indonesia are also present in Australia and elsewhere in Asia. Their patterns of mobility among countries in the region are largely undescribed, but there are opportunities for further regional collaboration.
