Comparative analysis of the rRNA sequence data revealed that both groups of coryneforms belong to the genus Actinomyces. On the basis of the present molecular findings and previous biochemical studies, we propose a new Actinomyces species, Actinomyces neuii sp. nov., containing Actinomyces neuii subsp. neuii subsp. nov. for CDC group 1 coryneform bacteria and Actinomyces neuii subsp. anitratus subsp. nov. for CDC group 1-like coryneform bacteria. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/00207713-44-1-167
