Summary Ninety‐three mycoplasmas isolated in Australia from various pathological conditions in cattle and from healthy cattle were classified using the growth inhibition reaction. Eighty strains were placed in seven of the eight groups described by Leach (1967). The number of additional groups into which the 13 remaining strains may fall is not known. Cross‐reactions not described previously were found between M. bovigenitalium and strains of group 7 (L2917).
