A total of 28 species of reptiles were investigated for Blastocystis using light microscopy and in vitro culture in biphasic egg slant medium. Blastocystis species were detected in 8 (28.6%) of these 28 species in 3 tortoises (Geochelone elephantopus, G. elegans and G. carbonaria), 3 snakes (Boiga dendrophilla, Python reticulatus and Elaphe radiata), 1 crocodile (Crocodylus porosus) and 1 iguana lizard (Cyclura cornuta). The reptilian Blastocystis appeared to be morphologically similar to B. hominis.
使用光学显微镜和在双相鸡蛋斜面培养基中进行体外培养，对总共28种爬行动物进行了芽囊原虫检测。在这28种动物中的8种（28.6%）检测到了芽囊原虫，这些动物包括3只乌龟（印度星龟、缅甸陆龟和红腿陆龟）、3条蛇（金花蛇、网纹蟒和棕黑锦蛇）、1只鳄鱼（湾鳄）和1只鬣蜥（圆尾鬣蜥）。爬行动物的芽囊原虫在形态上似乎与人体芽囊原虫相似。
