Journal of Morphology, 1975
AbstractA survey of 69 of the 74 currently recognized chelonian genera revealed that 21 genera in three families (Emydidae, Platysternidae and Testudinidae) possess paired integumentary glands or gland vestiges in the anterior throat skin. These glands are here termed mental glands; they are holocrine and may be classified morphologically as follows ...

Diseases of the Respiratory Tract of Chelonians
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2000Diseases of the respiratory tract commonly occur in captive chelonians, and several diseases also have occurred in wild chelonians. Infectious causes include viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites. Herpesviruses have surfaced as important pathogens of the oral cavity and respiratory tract in Hermann's tortoise (Testudo hermanii), spur-thighed tortoise
