Abstract

Mycobacterium ulcerans ecovar Liflandii has recently been described as the causative agent of fatal disease in different frog species. This is the first report of this pathogen in a Cuban crocodile ( Crocodylus rhombifer ), which died suddenly in a Hungarian zoo. The authors' findings suggest that M. ulcerans ecovar Liflandii does not exclusively infects anurans and highlights the zoonotic risk posed by this emerging pathogen.
