Abstract

(Sebald) differs so much from the type species of the genus (Castellani and Chalmers), that it should not be retained within this genus. On the basis of biochemical, chemical, and genetic criteria, we propose that be reclassified in a new genus, , as comb. nov., the type species of the genus. The type strain of is strain NCTC 11300 (= ATCC 33386).
