Received 22 September 2006/ Accepted 21 February 2007

We have developed a new medium for the direct isolation of Vibrio vulnificus from water and oyster samples. The medium was shown in laboratory and field studies to be highly selective without providing preferential isolation of either V. vulnificus genotype.
