L. tigrinus shares a derived chromosomal number with pardalis and wiedii ( Wurster-Hill, 1973) . Includes Felis pardinoides after Cabrera (1958); however, see J. A. Allen (1919 b) and Weigel (1961) who considered pardinoides as distinct, but closely related to tigrinus . Synonyms allocated according to Pocock (1941 c), Cabrera (1957), and Hall (1981).
