Abstract
Squamous cell carcinomas in Testudines are rarely reported. Most cases in the literature describe these tumors in captive animals. We report spontaneously arising squamous cell carcinomas affecting the plastron of two wild Bell’s turtles (Myuchelys bellii) from the Macdonald River in New South Wales, Australia.
