Hemorrhagic septicemia Hemorrhagic septicemia Haemorrhagic septicaemia is one of the most economically important pasteurelloses. Haemorrhagic septicaemia in cattle and buffaloes was previously known to be associated with one of two serotypes of "P. multocida": Asian B:2 and African E:2 according to the Carter-Heddleston system, or 6:B and 6:E using the Namioka-Carter system. The disease occurs mainly in cattle and buffaloes, but has also been reported in goats ("Capra aegagrus hircus"), African buffalo ("Syncerus nanus"), camels, horses and donkeys ("Equus africanus asinus"), in pigs infected by serogroup B, and in wild elephants ("Elephas maximus"). Serotypes B:1 and B:3,4 have caused a septicaemic disease
Equus conversidens Equus conversidens Equus conversidens (Owen 1869), or the Mexican horse, is a dubious Pleistocene species of horse, now extinct, that inhabited North America. The holotype of "Equus conversidens", a partial palate, was unearthed in Pleistocene deposits northeast of Mexico City, Mexico. In January 1963, a partial skeleton was found in the city of Canyon, Texas in a white clay bed during the excavation of a basement, and was referred to "E. conversidens" by Dalquest and Hughes (1965), who interpreted the species as medium to small-sized, and added additional records of the species from Texas (including a skeleton from Slaton), Arizona,
