OPMV has been here for only a couple of years. Unless things have changed it can be diagnosed here, but confirmation of the strain can only be done overseas (as Peterescue said).

I know of one public wildlife collection (with excellent quarantine protocols) that has had two outbreaks of OPMV. They tracked it back to a volunteer who had been handling illegally-acquired exotics at a mates place (or so I was told).
