The term "Big Cat" s neither a biological nor a size classification. It refers to two different types of cats, those that roar, and those that do not. A Snow Leopard is a Big Cat by that classification although it is of a small size.
panthers are melanistic colour variants of several species of larger cat. Wild black panthers in Latin America are black jaguars (Panthera onca), in Asia and Africa black leopards (Panthera pardus), and in North America may be black jaguars or possibly black cougars (Puma concolor) (although this has not been proven to have a black variant), or smaller cats.
Panther is a generic term and may be any of the following species:
a lion - panthera leo
a tiger - panthera tigris
a leopard - panthera pardus
a jaguar - panthera onca
a snow leopard - panthera uncia.
All are classified as big cats.
No, the panther is not the largest cat. That honor goes to the tiger, followed by the male lion.

snow leopard!? is that not a wild cat and NOT a domestic cat?!
Yes.
The cheetah, cougar, snow and clouded leopards cat not roar. Only the cats in the Panthera genus can roar. These cats are the lion, leopard, tiger and jaguar.
Genetically, the snow leopard's closest relative is the tiger (which also happens to partially overlap with the snow leopard's habitat, for instance in the mountains of Bhutan). Compare the facial structure of the two cats and you'll see the similarity.
