 ==Causes==
 Five species of the genus Ehrlichia have been shown to cause human infection:
-* ''[[Anaplasma phagocytophilum]]'' (which causes [[human granulocytic anaplasmosis]], formerly known as human granulocytic ehrlichiosis).
+* ''[[Anaplasma phagocytophilum]]'' (which causes , formerly known as human granulocytic ehrlichiosis).
-* ''[[Ehrlichia ewingii]]'' (which causes [[human ewingii ehrlichiosis]]). ''E. ewingii'' primarily infects deer and dogs (see [[Ehrlichiosis (canine)]]).
-* ''[[Ehrlichia chaffeensis]]'' (which causes [[human monocytic ehrlichiosis]]).
-* ''[[Ehrlichia canis]]''
-* ''[[Neorickettsia sennetsu]]''
-The latter two infections are not well studied.
