| Abstract |
|
Testudinidae Sulawesi tortoise adenovirus-1 is a novel Siadenovirus associated with significant mortality, which was recently described from a confiscated group of Sulawesi tortoises (Indotestudo forsteni). One collection that housed adenovirus-infected Sulawesi tortoises also housed several other chelonian species. Species were maintained within the same room, but not within the same enclosure, and attempts were made to prevent cross-contamination between enclosures. Over a 2- yr period after introduction of the confiscated Sulawesi tortoises, several impressed tortoises (Manouria impressa) and Burmese star tortoises died (Geochelone platynota).
