Abstract

A new species of rapidly growing, nonphotochromogenic mycobacteria, , is described. This taxon commonly occurs in the soil and may have been erroneously identified previously as can be differentiated from all previously described species of mycobacteria. The type strain is strain ATCC 43059 (= NCH E11715).
