Eqidne Biliary Fever 
Both N. eqai and P. caballi occur in equine biliary fever in India, 
giving rise to two distinct diseases in the Madras Presidency. The 
infection is more prevalent among Australian horses. Both forms are 
amenable to treatment, if diagnosed at an early stage, but Nuttalliosis 
may persist and is liable to recurrence when the infected animal is 
subjected to unfavourable conditions.
