Cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by L. aethiopica is endemic in Ethiopia, Kenya and South-west Africa. In a previous paper, the present authors reported natural Leishmania species infection in two hyraxes, P. capensis. In this paper, an isolate from a rock hyrax. P. capensis (Pallas, 1766) was enzymatically characterized by demonstrating the mobilities of seven enzymes, to be identical with the reference strain of L. aethiopica.
由埃塞俄比亚利什曼原虫引起的皮肤利什曼病在埃塞俄比亚、肯尼亚和西南非洲呈地方流行。在之前的一篇论文中，本文作者报道了两只南非蹄兔自然感染利什曼原虫物种的情况。在本文中，对一只岩蹄兔（南非蹄兔，P. capensis，帕拉斯，1766年）的分离株进行了酶学特征分析，通过测定七种酶的迁移率，发现其与埃塞俄比亚利什曼原虫的参考菌株相同。
