ABSTRACT

Three panther chameleons, Furcifer pardalis, with multifocal raised skin lesions were evaluated. Clinical, bacteriological and histopathological investigations were performed. Histopathological findings revealed beaded filamentous organisms consistent with Dermatophilus spp. Following systemic and topical antibacterial therapy, there was full remission of clinical signs.
