Conteúdo: 	Diseases of the respiratory system are common in reptiles and are responsible for considerable morbidityand mortality in zoos and private collections. Newly acquired animals, suffering from stresses of shipment, are susceptible to a wide variety of infectious agents including algae (Prototheca spp.), bacteria, fungi, and parasites. There is a single report a virus associated with a respiratory disease epizootic in a colony of fer-de-lance (Bothrop atrox). Primary neoplasm involving the respiratory system of a reptile was reported once, but there are several reports of metastatic involvement. Reptiles kept in collections for considerable periods of time may spontaneously break with infections of the respiratory system. Sudden lowering of ambient temperature, insufficient humidity, and starvation may be predisposing factors.
