Babesia pantherae sp.nov., a piroplasm of the leopard (Panthera pardus)
A large Babesia species was found in a leopard (Panthera pardus) in Kenya. It was established in domestic cats but no other animal was found to be susceptible. The parasite has been compared with other piroplasms of felids and it was found to differ from them in some significant characters.
