*Caused by [[Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides|''Mycoplasma mycoides'']], small colony variant
  −
*Causes a fibrinonecrotic [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Infectious causes of pneumonia|pneumonia]] and [[Pleural Cavity & Membranes Inflammatory - Pathology|fibrinous pleuritis]]
  −
*Also affects caudodorsal areas
  −
*[[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Bronchopneumonia|Bronchopneumonia]] -> [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Lobar pneumonia|lobar pneumonia]]
  −
*Sequestra are common
  −
*NB: similarity to pneumonic pasteurellosis but CBPP has more pronounced marbled effect
  −
*Interstitial septa are markedly widened by fibrinous exudate and the necrotic areas may have a fibrous capsule
  −
*Large colony variant will cause a similar disease in goats
