The bacteria, Bartonella bacilliformis, was isolated by Alberto Barton in 1909, but wasn't identified as the cause of the fever until 1940.
The Bartonella genus includes at least 11 bacteria species, four of which cause human diseases, including cat-scratch disease and bacillary angiomatosis. However, bartonellosis refers exclusively to the disease caused by B. bacilliformis.

Cat-scratch disease is caused by Bartonella henselae
The scientific name for cat scratch disease is Bartonella henselae. It is a bacterial infection that can be transmitted to humans through a scratch or bite from an infected cat.
bartonellosis refers exclusively to the disease caused by B. bacilliformis.Bartonellosis is transmitted by the nocturnal sandfly and arises from infection with B. bacilliformis
Bartonella henselae is uncommon or absent in cold climates, which fleas have difficulty tolerating, but prevalent in warm, humid places such as Memphis, Tennessee, where antibodies were found in 71% of the cats tested.
Cat-scratch disease is caused by Bartonella henselae
Bartonellosis is identified by symptoms and the patient's history, such as recent travel in areas where bartonellosis occurs. Isolation of B. bacilliformis from the bloodstream or lesions can confirm the diagnosis.
Bartonellosis is an infectious disease caused by bacteria of the Bartonella family. It can be transmitted to humans through animal bites or scratches, ticks, or fleas. Symptoms can include fever, fatigue, headache, and swollen lymph nodes. Treatment typically involves antibiotics.
