The genus Soboliphyme is a group of parasitic nematodes found in the families Soricidae and Musteridae in the Holarctic Region, including Japan. We isolated a member of the genus, S. baturini, from a domestic cat (Felis catus), which had suffered from severe diarrhea. This is the first local record in a cat in Japan, and the second one from a cat in the world.
