Abstract
SummaryDisseminated infection with Mycobacterium genavense was diagnosed in an adult grizzled giant squirrel (Ratufa macroura). Microscopical examination showed granulomatous inflammation in the brain, kidneys, lungs and maxilla with intracellular acid-fast bacilli. M. genavense and a novel species of Mycobacterium (proposed name ‘Mycobacterium lipsiensis’) were identified.
