Should this be merged with the Mycoplasma article? Mycoplama looks to be a stub, although Mycoplasma is described as a genus, while Mycoplasmataceae is a family, but nothing I see as to what makes Mycoplama more specific taxonomically. url pathmicro.med.sc.edu/2008-bacppt/Mycoplasma08.ppt suggests that there is a difference. Which direction the merge goes in a question. I'd think the term 'mycoplama' might be more 'well-known' (basically any site that talks about alt-health hypotheses of mycoplama causing.. all sorts of things.. but I've never even seen the name 'mycoplasmataceae' before today..)
