Background: Various pathogens cause skin diseases in lizards. An outbreak of skin disease occurred in a population of 100 inland bearded dragons at a breeding facility in Japan; 50 developed skin lesions and 15 mortalities were reported.
Hypothesis/objectives: To identify the pathogens responsible for the skin lesions and to determine the cause of death.
Dermatophilus congolensis was isolated from cutaneous hyperkeratotic nodules of two marble lizards. The organism was similar to strains of D congolensis previously characterized as mammalian pathogens. The isolate was experimentally transmitted to other marble lizards and to Spb:(SW)BR mice by subcutaneous inoculation and by topical application after skin scarification.
