🧍 According to Yarza et al. (2013), an "un-sequenced orphan species where descriptions, illustrations or dead preserved material serve as the type.".

🧍 Revision of the former classification as "Candidatus Mycoplasma wenyonii".
Publication:
Neimark H, Johansson KE, Rikihisa Y, Tully JG. 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'. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2001; 51:891-899.
- 🧍 In 2001, Neimark et al. proposed the transfer of Eperythrozoon wenyonii to the genus Mycoplasma with the Candidatus status, "Candidatus Mycoplasma wenyonii" Neimark et al. 2001. The Candidatus designation is for new, incompletely described taxa, in order to give them a provisional status; changing validly published names to Candidatus would lose their standing in nomenclature. So, Neimark et al. revise "Candidatus Mycoplasma wenyonii" to Mycoplasma wenyonii comb. nov. Publication: Adler S, Ellenbogen V. A note on two new blood parasites of cattle, Eperythrozoon and Bartonella. Journal of Comparative Pathology 1934; 47:220-221.
