Abstract

Boháček et al. have proposed that the flagellated, gram-positive cocci be included in the genus Migula, particularly on the basis of their per cent guanine plus cytosine content. A serological examination of these organisms (10 strains) by the author revealed no antigenic relationship to staphylococci or micrococci, thus substantiating the conclusion of Boháček et al. that they do not belong to the genus . Antigenically, the group of strains was rather heterogeneous.
