A case of fatal pulmonary infection in a female tortoise (Tachemys scripta) imported into Spain from Cuba is reported. Necropsy revealed general pulmonary congestion with pleuritis and a large number of yellowish nodules of the granulomatous type, similar to aspergillomata. Histological examination showed some infiltration of round cells, surrounding a small mass of fungal hyphae. Culturing on Sabouraud glucose agar, demonstrated the presence of a fungus whose macroscopic and microscopic characteristics corresponded to those of Beauveria bassiana.
报道了一例从古巴进口到西班牙的雌性锦龟（彩龟）发生致命肺部感染的病例。尸检显示肺部普遍充血，伴有胸膜炎，还有大量肉芽肿型淡黄色结节，类似于曲菌球。组织学检查显示有一些圆形细胞浸润，围绕着一小团真菌菌丝。在沙氏葡萄糖琼脂上培养，证实存在一种真菌，其宏观和微观特征与球孢白僵菌相符。
