- Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae is the correct name 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, legitimate and not rejected and has priority) within a separate genus Mycoplasma.
- The full TRBA 466 classification is: risk group = 2, note = "t".
