Mycoplasma corogypsi sp. nov., a New Species from the Footpad Abscess of a Black Vulture, Coragyps atratus [PDF]
Strain BV1 was isolated from the exudate of the footpad abscess of a black vulture (Coragyps atratus). The colonies had a "fried-egg" appearance consistent with that of mycoplasmal species. Electron microscopic examination of the cells revealed irregular elongated or elliptical forms and smaller circular budding processes.
