276 So.2d 495 (1973)
Eugene MOBLEY, Appellant,
v.
ALLSTATE INSURANCE COMPANY, Appellee.
No. 72-309.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
April 27, 1973.
David A. Maney, and Richard Mulholland, Tampa, for appellant.
Fowler, White, Gillen, Humkey, Kinney & Boggs, Tampa, for appellee.
MANN, Chief Judge.
Mobley's wife was injured by an uninsured motorist. Mobley seeks a judgment declaring Allstate, his insurer, liable to him under the uninsured motorist clause[1] for damages for loss of consortium. In a second count, he seeks damages. Allstate's motion to dismiss was granted because "there is no separate cause of action by the husband for the society, companionship, consortium, assistance and services of the wife under the uninsured motorist coverage afforded by the policy alleged in the complaint."
Without reaching possible defenses to the action or treating as "fact" allegations embodied in the answer of Allstate or in its brief, we hold simply that damages for loss *496 of consortium are as fully recoverable under an uninsured motorist clause as any other type of damages. Our Supreme Court has made it clear that the clause effectively substitutes the insured's carrier for the negligent uninsured motorist. If that motorist is liable, there is coverage under the clause.[2]
Dismissal at this stage was erroneous, and the order is thereupon
Reversed.
HOBSON and BOARDMAN, JJ., concur.
