Recently, a novel species of the genusBorreliawas identified inBothriocroton concolorandIxodes holocyclusticks from echidnas. Analyses of 16S rRNA andflaBgenes identified three closely related genotypes of this bacterium (Borreliasp. Aus A-C) that were unique and distinct from previously described borreliae.
