Proposal to transfer some members of the genera Haemobartonella and Eperythrozoon to the genus Mycoplasma with descriptions of 'Candidatus Mycoplasma haemofelis', 'Candidatus Mycoplasma haemomuris', 'Candidatus Mycoplasma haemosuis' and 'Candidatus Mycoplasma wenyonii'.

Nomenclatural status: not validly published

Correct name: Mycoplasma suis corrig. (Splitter 1950) Neimark et al. 2002

Synonyms:

Name	Kind
Mycoplasma haemosuis (sic) (Splitter 1950) Neimark et al. 2002	homotypic synonym, misspelling
Mycoplasma suis corrig. (Splitter 1950) Neimark et al. 2002	homotypic synonym, validly published
Eperythrozoon suis Splitter 1950 (Approved Lists 1980)	homotypic synonym, validly published

Notes:
- 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 "Candidatus Mycoplasma haemosuis" to Mycoplasma haemosuis nom. nov.
