, a New Bovine Species Free

Abstract

Three mycoplasmas isolated from the male bovine genital tract and a mastitic udder exhibited serological properties which distinguished them from any of the known species. Further, a variety of serological procedures failed to identify these organisms with any of the wide range of members of the order tested. These strains are described as belonging to a new species, for which we propose the name Strain 275C, designated as the type strain, has been deposited in the National Collection of Type Cultures, Great Britain, under the number 10152.
