✦ Synopsis


The finding of leopard, Pantkera pardus (L., 1758), from the late Pleistocene horizon of Rixdorf in Berlin and the occurrence of leopards in the Pleistocene of Europe are described and discussed.

For the first time the occurrence of the leopard (Pantkeru pardus) in the horizon of Rixdorf (Early Weichsel, Late Pleistocene) of Berlin-Brandenburg is proven. The find is represented by a fragment of a humerus from Niederlehme near Konigs Wusterhausen. This is the most northern occurrence of the leopard in Middle Europe until now.
