Chlamydia (genus)
''Chlamydia'' is a genus of pathogenic bacteria that are obligate intracellular parasites. ''Chlamydia'' infections are the most common bacterial sexually transmitted diseases in humans and are the leading cause of infectious blindness worldwide.
The three ''Chlamydia'' species include ''Chlamydia trachomatis'' (a human pathogen), ''Chlamydia suis'' (affects only swine), and ''Chlamydia muridarum'' (affects only mice and hamsters). Additionally, three species that were previously classified as ''Chlamydia'' have since 1999 been reclassified into the then newly created ''Chlamydophila'' genus: ''Chlamydophila psittaci'', ''Chlamydophila pneumoniae'', and ''Chlamydophila pecorum''.
==Classification==
Because of ''Chlamydia''s unique developmental cycle, it was taxonomically classified in a separate order.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Chlamydia trachomatis )〕 ''Chlamydia'' is part of the Chlamydiales order, Chlamydiaceae family. As of March 2008, a new chlamydial agent has been proposed to be introduced into the Chlamidiaceae family, namely "''Candidatus'' Clavochlamydia salmonicola".〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Chlamydial taxonomy since 1999 )〕
