Although knowledge of the animal host species and geographic distribution of <jats:italic>Leptospira<\/jats:italic> serovars is critical to understand the human and animal epidemiology of leptospirosis, current data are fragmented. We aimed to systematically review, the literature on animal host species and geographic distribution of <jats:italic>Leptospira<\/jats:italic> serovars to examine associations between serovars with animal host species and regions and to identify geographic regions in need of study.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Nine library databases were searched from inception through 9 March 2023 using keywords including <jats:italic>Leptospira<\/jats:italic>, animal, and a list of serovars. We sought reports of detection of <jats:italic>Leptospira<\/jats:italic>, from any animal, characterised by cross agglutinin absorption test, monoclonal antibody typing, serum factor analysis, or pulsed\u2010field gel electrophoresis to identify the serovar.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>We included 409 reports, published from 1927 through 2022, yielding data on 154 <jats:italic>Leptospira<\/jats:italic> serovars. The reports included data from 66 (26.5%) of 249 countries. Detections were from 144 animal host species including 135 (93.8%) from the class Mammalia, 5 (3.5%) from Amphibia, 3 (2.1%) from Reptilia, and 1 (0.7%) from Arachnida. Across the animal host species, <jats:italic>Leptospira<\/jats:italic> serovars that were detected in the largest number of animal species included Grippotyphosa (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200939), Icterohaemorrhagiae (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200929), Pomona (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200928), Australis (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200925), and Ballum (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200925).
