A colony of frogs experienced excessive mortality due to glomerulonephritis. The presenting symptom in all cases was bloating due to hydrocoelom and anasarca. Mycobacteria sp was suspected to be a source of chronic antigenic stimulation that resulted in the glomerulonephritis. The prognosis was grave once symptoms appeared. Histopathology from some of the affected frogs is described, and mycobacterial disease in amphibians is discussed.
