Abstract

Extract

The purpose of this paper is to describe the salient features of the neurological conditions seen in sheep in New Zealand which are associated with changes in the central nervous system. Several of the conditions associated with perinatal mortality will be mentioned only briefly in this paper as the details will be included in a subsequent paper on ovine perinatal mortality. Some of the entities to be described have been reported before and are reviewed. Others are described here for the first time.
