Piscirickettsia cf. salmonis infections have been limited in the Great Lakes to muskellunge and yellow perch from Lake St. Clair. The bacterium was detected in all of the fish sampled from Lake St. Clair during a large muskellunge die-off in 2003. No subsequent mortalities were observed in St. Clair until 2006.

Piscirickettsia cf. salmonis has also been isolated from yellow perch from St. Clair with infection rates as high as 57 percent. Analysis of the two isolates from muskellunge and yellow perch indicate both are identical.
