The adults of A. tubaeforme are 7 to 12 mm long. A. tubaeforme can be differentiated from the adults of A. braziliense and A. ceylanicum by the presence of three teeth. Here we describe the first re­port of A. tubaeforme in a Persian young female leopard, 2-3 years old, with head and trunk length 120 centimeters, length of tail 98 centimeters and body weight 35 kilograms. https://ijpa.tums.ac.ir/index.php/ijpa/article/view/128 https://ijpa.tums.ac.ir/index.php/ijpa/article/download/128/127
