Histologic section of one of the pigmented plaques. Epidermal hyperplasia, with melanosis, large keratohyalin granules (red arrow), as well as a few single scattered clear cells reminiscent of koilocytes (black arrow). The superficial dermis presented a mild inflammatory infiltrate and pigmentary incontinence (blue arrows).

Phylogenetic tree of 80 papillomaviruses including all currently assigned genera and carnivore infecting virus types. Tree based on the sequence information of E1, E1, L2 and L1. Genera containing canine papillomaviruses are highlighted in red (Chi), blue (Tau) and green (Lambda). Unclassified viruses are marked with an asterisk.
