Atypical brucellae show deviant phenotypes and/or genotypes. BesidesBrucella inopinata,B. microtiandB. vulpis, atypical strains have been described infecting humans, rodents, amphibians and fish. They represent potential zoonotic agents. Here, we provide evidence that reptiles as the remaining poikilothermic vertebrate class also represent susceptible hosts for atypicalBrucella.
