Abstract
Several fungal diagnostic assays may detect Nannizziopsis guarroir, the cause of mycotic dermatitis of lizards, in clinical cases, but the clinical performance of these assays has yet to be explored. Six adult bearded dragons were topically exposed to N. guarroi along the dorsal midline and serially sampled over five months as clinical cutaneous lesions developed. Diagnostic test results for fungal culture, qPCR, and NGS positivity and negativity are presented.
