Mycoplasma cavipharyngis, a new species isolated from the nasopharynx of guinea-pigs.
Two mycoplasma strains isolated from the nasopharynx of guinea-pigs in two separate colonies were biochemically and serologically identical, and distinct from 80 Mycoplasma and Acholeplasma spp. One of them, strain 117C (NCTC 11700), is designated the type strain of a new species Mycoplasma cavipharyngis.
