          Abstract

          Hepatozoon canis-like schizonts were found in the hearts of 2 lionesses (Panthera leo) from Kenya. The parasite, initially described as a new genus and new species Microbesnoitia leoni Bwangamoi, 1989, is determined to be a junior synonym of Hapatozoon canis (James, 1905) Wenyon, 1926.
