Summary
Isolation of two new group C viruses, for which the names Madrid and Ossa are suggested, is reported. They are immunologically distinct from each other, but both are more closely related to Caraparu than to any other known group C virus. Each was obtained from the blood of a male entomological worker in a tropical rain forest in the Province of Bocas del Toro, R.P., suffering from a self-limited acute febrile illness. These are the first reported isolations of group C viruses from Central America.
