Abstract

Mycoplasmas recovered recently from dogs were found unrelated to three classified canine Mycoplasma serotypes but were similar in biological and serological properties to a Mycoplasma strain (C21, PG-24) isolated 18 years earlier. It is proposed that strains with the characteristics described be designated Mycoplasma edwardii sp. n.
