Ureaplasma parvum is a species of Ureaplasma, a genus of bacteria belonging to the family Mycoplasmataceae.[1]

Ureaplasma parvum was formerly known as Ureaplasma urealyticum biovar 1.[2] Ureaplasma parvum has been identified as being a commensal in the uterus as part of the microbiome in healthy women of reproductive age.[3][4]
