Aldo Castellani isolated it soon after the discovery of T. pallidum in 1905. The genus Treponema has three species: pallidum, pertenue, and carateum. Treponema pallidum is probably the most famous of the group, being that it causes syphilis. The Treponema are helically coiled organisms having a corkscrew-like shape.ldo Castellani isolated it soon after the discovery of T. pallidum in 1905.

As stated, bacteria of the genus Borrelia are the cause of Lyme disease. Borrelia spp. are relatives of Treponema pallidum, the infectious agent that causes syphilis. Both kinds of bacteria are spirochetes, and both cause an initial skin irritation followed by long-term systemic (e.g., neurologic) manifestations.s stated, bacteria of the genus Borrelia are the cause of Lyme disease.
