钩端螺旋体属目前包括16个命名的物种。此外，四个未命名的杂交组被指定为钩端螺旋体基因型1，3，4和5。这些类群代表了有效的种级分类群，但在Brenner等人[Int J Syst Bacteriol 49，839-858（1999）]的原始描述中没有指定名称。为了纠正这种情况，建议将钩端螺旋体基因型1、基因型3、基因型4和基因型5分类为Leptospira alstonii sp. nov.，范氏钩端螺旋体，钩端螺旋体terpstrae sp. nov.和钩端螺旋体yanagawae sp. nov.，分别与L. alstonii 79601（T）（=ATCC BAA-2439（T））、L. vanthieli WaZ Holland（T）（=ATCC 700522（T））、L. terpstrae LT 11-33（T）（=ATCC 700639（T））和L. yanagawae圣保罗（T）（=ATCC 700523（T））作为模式菌株。模式菌株也可从位于荷兰阿姆斯特丹和澳大利亚布里斯班的世卫组织合作中心的培养物保藏中心获得。
The genus Leptospira currently comprises 16 named species. In addition, four unnamed hybridization groups were designated Leptospira genomospecies 1, 3, 4 and 5. These groups represent valid species-level taxa, but were not assigned names in the original description by Brenner et al. [Int J Syst Bacteriol 49, 839-858 (1999)]. To rectify this situation, it is proposed that Leptospira genomospecies 1, genomospecies 3, genomospecies 4 and genomospecies 5 should be classified as Leptospira alstonii sp. nov., Leptospira vanthielii sp. nov., Leptospira terpstrae sp. nov. and Leptospira yanagawae sp. nov., respectively, with strains L. alstonii 79601(T) (=ATCC BAA-2439(T)), L. vanthielii WaZ Holland(T) (=ATCC 700522(T)), L. terpstrae LT 11-33(T) (=ATCC 700639(T)) and L. yanagawae Sao Paulo(T) (=ATCC 700523(T)) as the type strains. The type strains are also available from the culture collections of the WHO Collaborating Centres in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, and Brisbane, Australia.
