The group has been primarily concerned with recognition of type strains or other reference strains for the species of Actinomyces and with standardization of techniques for the study of the genus. Eleven species of Actinomyces or closely related organisms have been distributed and studied following techniques detailed in a “Manual of Procedures” which is included in the report. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/00207713-18-3-253
