Reoviruses are (in addition to adenoviruses) among the viruses most commonly detected in lizards and snakes. They can, however, also be found in turtles and tortoises. The most common clinical signs associated with infections in lizards and snakes are respiratory disease, particularly pneumonias. These viruses have also been associated with the development of papillomatous skin lesions in lizards. Oral swabs, skin, and lung samples have been used for virus detection.
Snakes
Reoviruses are not uncommon in snakes. Clinical signs and diagnosis are as described for lizards.
