This document is a compilation of peer-reviewed publications from July to December 2023 on infectious agents of reptiles and amphibians. The articles cover a range of topics, including viruses, bacteria, and their impact on various species. Some notable findings include the molecular characterization of a reptarenavirus in a Colombian red-tailed boa, the detection of ranavirus in common musk turtles, and the prevalence and genetic diversity of ranavirus in Asia. Additionally, there are articles on amphibian dermatology, the gut microbiota's role in ranavirus infection, and the correlation between microbial communities and hatching failure in loggerhead sea turtles.
