Nomenclatural status:
not validly published
Nomenclatural pro-status:
pro-validly published under the ICNP
homotypic synonym, validly published under the ICNP
Notes:
❗ "Candidatus Mycoplasma haemofelis" is the pro-correct name instead if this species is regarded as a separate species (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another species whose name is validly published and legitimate or pro-validly published and pro-legitimate and not rejected and has priority or pro-priority) within a separate genus Mycoplasma.

The full classification is: risk group = 1, note = "animal pathogen - biological class of risk animal: 2". — The risk group for Canada has been imported on 2024-02-27. The full classification is: risk group = 1, note = "Animal classification RG: 2 - Security sensitive biological agent: No - Terrestrial animal pathogen under Canadian Food Inspection Agency authority: No - Containment level: Containment Level 2". — The risk group for Swiss Confederation has been imported on 2024-02-01. The full classification is: risk group = 2. — The risk group for Germany has been imported on 2026-08-13. The full classification is: risk group = 2, note = "t". — If in doubt, use the risk group given in the regulations for your country and, if these are not available, use the risk group given in the catalogue of the culture collection from which you have obtained or intend to obtain the strain.
🧍 The Candidatus designation is for new, incompletely described taxa, in order to give them a provisional status; changing validly published name to Candidatus would lose their standing in nomenclature. So, Neimark et al. revise "CandidatusMycoplasma haematofelis" to Mycoplasma haemofelis nom. nov.Publication:
