*Haemolytic streptococci of Lancefield group C are common inhabitants of the equine nasopharynx
 
*''Streptococcus zooepidemicus'' and ''S. equisimilis'' are usually non-pathogenic
 
*''S. equi'' is more pathogenic and is the cause of [[Respiratory Bacterial Infections - Pathology#Strangles|strangles]] with [[Nasal Cavity Inflammatory - Pathology#Strangles|rhinitis]], [[Nasopharynx Inflammatory - Pathology|pharyngitis]], lymphadenitis, [[Muscles Inflammatory - Pathology#Abscesses|myositis]]
 
*''S. equi'' may be involved in [[Bacterial skin infections - Pathology#Systemic bacterial infections|cutaneous lesions]]
 
[[Respiratory Bacterial Infections - Pathology#In Horses|URT inflammation in horses]]
 
 
 
* [[Peritoneal Cavity Inflammatory - Pathology#In pigs|peritonitis in pigs]]
 
 
 
*''S. zooepidemicus'' can cause similar signs to [[Respiratory Bacterial Infections - Pathology#Strangles|strangles in horses]], may accompany [[Bronchi and Bronchioles Inflammatory - Pathology#Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)|COPD]]
 
 
 
*May cause [[Paranasal Sinuses Inflammatory - Pathology|sinusitis]] in horses
 
 
 
* Can cause vascular fragility, leading to [[General Pathology - Haemostasis#Haemorrhagic Disease Due To Vascular Fragility|haemorrhagic disease]].
 
*Secondary invadors after [[Respiratory Viral Infections - Pathology#Equine influenza|Equine influenza]]
 
*''S. suis'' in [[Respiratory Bacterial Infections - Pathology#Streptococcal pneumonia|pneumonia]] of pigs
 
 
 
*In [[Pleural Cavity & Membranes Inflammatory - Pathology#Pyothorax (Thoracic empyema)|pyothorax]]
 
* In [[Bones Inflammatory - Pathology#Osteomyelitis|osteomyelitis]]
 
 
 
*In infectious [[Joints Inflammatory - Pathology#In Sheep|arthritis of sheep]], [[Joints Inflammatory - Pathology#In Cattle|arthritis in calves]], [[Joints Inflammatory - Pathology#In Horses|arthritis in horses]] and [[Joints Inflammatory - Pathology#In Pigs|arthritis in pigs]]
 
 
 
*In horses sometimes [[Muscles Degenerative - Pathology#Ischaemia|purpura haemorrhagica]] follows, especially during recovery from [[Respiratory Bacterial Infections - Pathology#Strangles|strangles]]
 
*In [[Cavity & Gingiva - Pathology#Catarrhal Stomatitis|catarrhal stomatitis]]
