Chlamydia pecorum, also known as Chlamydophila pecorum[2][3] is a species of Chlamydiaceae that originated from ruminants, such as cattle, sheep and goats.[4] It has also infected koalas and swine.[5] C. pecorum strains are serologically and pathogenically diverse.[6]

In the koalas, C. pecorum causes infections in the reproductive systems and urinary tract, as well as pneumonia, infertility, and death.[7] It is considered one of the most important infectious diseases that currently plagues koalas.[8][9][10] C.pecorum is the most common chlamydial species to infect koalas and is the most pathogenic.[11] In other animals, C. pecorum has been associated with abortion, conjunctivitis, encephalomyelitis, enteritis, arthritis, and polyarthritis.[12][13][14][15][16][17][18]
