A new leptospiral serovar in the Pyrogenes serogroup is described. Parallel investigations by the 'classical' cross-agglutinin absorption test method and the 'factor analysis' method determined the serological properties of the new serovar. The serovar name kwale with reference strain Julu is proposed.
