The geographic distribution of bovine hypodermosis in the canton of Vaud (Switzerland) has been investigated by direct examination of the animals by the livestock officers at the 1993 annual census, and by an ELISA test on bulk milk sampled in January 1994. The efficacy of the two methods is compared and the distribution of hypodermosis presented on a map. The serological analyses present a highly satisfactory degree of sensitivity and specificity (92.1 and 98.1 resp.). The epidemiological interpretation, however, is rather difficult, as often the animals are not infested on their farms.
