“Two recent molecular analyses of morphologically similar fungal isolates formerly grouped under the appellation "Chrysosporium anamorph of Nannizziopsis vriesii (CANV) complex" led to major taxonomic revisions and revealed new insights into the biology of these reptile pathogens.”…

Likely I’ve posted some of the following sites before…but they still might be of interest to some of you…
The first paper out that I know of…

Dermatomycosis Caused by Paranannizziopsis australasiensis in
Nonnative Panther Chameleons (Furcifer pardalis) Captured in Central

“It is thus unclear
whether the population arose from captive
individuals that escaped or were released, or
was seeded from existing established popula-
tions elsewhere”…

Cutaneous Fungal Microflora of Healthy Squamate Reptiles and Prevalence of the Chrysosporium Anamorph of Nannizziopsis vriesii..
“Nannizziopsis vriesii, increasingly incriminated in fungal disease in reptiles, does not appear to be a common constituent of the microflora of healthy reptiles.”…

Molecular Characterization of Reptile Pathogens Currently Known as Members of the Chrysosporium Anamorph of Nannizziopsis vriesiiComplex and Relationship with Some Human-Associated Isolates…
“Forty-nine CANV isolates from reptiles and six isolates from human sources were compared with N. vriesii based on their cultural characteristics and DNA sequence data. Analyses of the sequences of the internal transcribed spacer and small subunit of the nuclear ribosomal gene revealed that the reptile pathogens and human isolates belong in well-supported clades corresponding to three lineages that are distinct from all other taxa within the family Onygenaceae of the order Onygenales”…https://journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/jcm.01465-13
