 '''Wild  hosts''' include European and Japanese eels, largemouth bass, striped sea bass, Atlantic salmon, Marble goby, snakes and birds.

 Other fish hosts that have been documented are perch-like species including Cichlidae, Chrysophrys unicolor, flathead mullet , bastard halibut, flounders, and mozambique tilapia. '''''E. tarda'' can also be found in zoo animals, zebu, cattle, pigs, reptiles, marine mammals, members of the Alligatoridae family (alligators and caimans) and humans.'''
 ==Clinical Signs==
 All life stages of fish are affected by ''E. tarda'' and '''haemorrhaging of the body cavity, muscle, and organs including liver and kidneys''' are commonly seen. Within the '''kidneys and spleen''', necrotic '''white/grey lesions''' can be seen on the surface of the organs.

 ==Control==
 ES may be controlled by the '''immersion of fish in formalin-killed whole cells (FKC), lipopolysaccharide (LPS) culture filtrates or whole cell bacterins vaccines'''. The two former vaccination may be administered via intramuscular injection and can cause death to some fish species.

 ''Edwardsiella tarda'' infects '''freshwater and marine fishes, reptiles and amphibians and mammals throughout the world'''. It causes '''''Edwardsiella septicemia (ES)''''' which is also known as '''''fish gangrene, emphysematous putrefactive disease of catfish or red disease in eels'''''.  It  causes serious systemic infection in cultured channel fish in the USA and in eels and flounders in Japan. '''Pale skin, petechiation and necrotic abscesses within the muscle of fish (that have a putrid odour when incised) are characteristic of ES'''. Mortality rates can depend on the amount of stress that the fish are kept under and high temperature, poor water quality and high organic fertility probably contribute to the onset and severity of the disease.
-Unlike ''E. ictaluri'', '''''E. tarda'' is zoonotic''' and can infect humans. [[Edwardsiella ictaluri|'''''E.ictaluri''''']] causes '''''enteric septicaemia of catfish (ESC)''''' and '''only infects fish species''', whereas '''''Edwardsiella hoshinae'' infects birds and reptiles'''.
