Two leishmanial isolates from dogs from Alexandria, Egypt, were typed serologically and biochemically as Leishmania major. This is the second time that L. major has been shown to occur in dogs. The significance of these findings as a misleading phenomenon in relation to the relatively recent outbreak of infantile kala-azar in the area of Alexandria is discussed.
对从埃及亚历山大港的犬只身上分离出的两种利什曼原虫进行了血清学和生化分型，结果显示为硕大利什曼原虫。这是第二次证实硕大利什曼原虫可在犬只身上出现。本文讨论了这些发现对于亚历山大港地区近期婴儿黑热病爆发而言作为一种误导现象的意义。
