Background: It was suggested that Equine herpesvirus 9 (EHV-9) could be transmitted to higher non-human primates.

Methods: Four cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) were inoculated with EHV-9 by the nasal route.

Results: No abnormalities were observed pathologically, immunohistochemically, and genetically.

Conclusions: These findings indicate that cynomolgus monkeys are not susceptible to EHV-9.
