While the article currently equates Borrelia with Borrelia burgdorferi (agent of Lyme disease), Borrelia is the genus, and it also includes other bacteria such as the agents of Relapsing fever. Many new Borrelia species and strains have been recently discovered according to the Lyme disease article; whether or not some of these belong in the Lyme disease or Relapsing fever category (or another) seems yet to be determined. But they're not all Borrelia burgorferi.-- 64.223.32.188 19:11, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
According to the source http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16814991 borrelia don't need oxygen. So they aren't microaerophile but obligate anaerobe. This is important for patients, because they should increase their oxygen intake. -- 178.197.236.82 ( talk) 14:08, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
The bacteria is said to be potentially pathogenic belonging to the borrelia sensus latu, adding to the hipótesis tha lyme disease could be endemic un south América, refer to this Links: http://www.researchgate.net/publication/258034437_Borrelia_chilensis_a_new_member_of_the_Borrelia_burgdorferi_sensu_lato_complex_that_extends_the_range_of_this_genospecies_in_the_Southern_Hemisphere http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24148079 Laureanolucero ( talk) 01:35, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified 2 external links on Borrelia. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Just noting that since 2013, Borrelia has been placed in the new family Borreliaceae and also that the Lyme-related Borrelia species have been separated in a new genus, Borreliella Adeolu & Gupta, 2015, a move which has been disputed by some (Margos et al., 2017) but reaffirmed by Barbour et al., 2017. References are:
Since the ramifications are somewhat wide ranging (and also subject to some dispute as noted above), (and I am also a bit busy with other things at present) I have not changed the current article text but may do in the future, or others are welcome to do so.

Hello! I'm planning on upgrading this page for a class assignment. I'm going to add in necessary citations and also more information. One of these edits includes adding in a newly discovered species to the phylogenetic tree, which I'm not sure how to do. The new species is B. mayonii and was discovered by Pritt et al. in 2016. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smneu ( talk • contribs) 16:43, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
Hello! Today I made some major edits to this page. I added information, citations, and 3 sections. Please review the history of the page for my specific edits. Feel free to reach out if you have any suggestions or concerns. Thanks Smneu ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 21:21, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
The official position of all Australian governments and of the Australian Medical Association is that "There is NO Lyme disease in Australia". Having said that, there appears to be strong anecdotal evidence that there is indeed in Australia a tick spread bacterium, PROBABLY similar to Borrelia, that causes a disease with similar symptoms.
Why is there a section on "Lice" under "Vectors", given that CDC has concluded (per cited source) that there is no credible evidence lice transmit Borrelia? -- Kent G. Budge ( talk) 22:45, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
