Hiya John!

Yep, I have that info already, but there are several varieties, depending on the
region they come from. All have different coats markings, spots, and size.

Felis (Prionailurus) bengalensis -

F. (P.) b. bengalensis - Asian
F. (P.) b. borneoensis
F. (P.) b. chinensis - Chinese
F. (P.) b. euptilura - Amurian
F. (P.) b. horsfieldi
F. (P.) b. javanensis - Javan
F. (P.) b. manchurica
F. (P.) b. minuta
F. (P.) b. sumatrans - Sumatrian
F. (P.) b. trevelyani

Now that's confusing!! :-)

Yours, Pont.

the image "a4/Leopard_cat1-by_John_White.jpg" is misnamed. this is a photo
of a Geoffrey's cat. it is a small south American cat. the leopard cat is
larger and has spots that are larger and more distinct. this goes for
"a4/Leopard_cat2-by_ John_White.jpg" also.
