Abstract

The classification of the benign species of Theileria of cattle is very confusing Representatives of this group of parasites appear worldwide, and are known as T. sergenti in Japan, T. buffeli in Australia and T. orientalis elsewhere. Consequently, these parasites are frequently referred to as the T. sergenti/buffeli/orientalis group. Kozo Fujisaki, Shin-ichiro Kawazu and Tsugihiko Kamio here argue that the Australian T. buffeli and British T. orientalis belong to one and the same species, and that the Japanese T. sergenti is a separate species.
