Abstract

Abstract

sp. nov. and sp. nov. from the human gingival crevice are described. These organisms are obligately anaerobic, non-spore-forming, nonmotile, gram-negative, rod-shaped bacteria that ferment carbohydrates and produce succinic and acetic acids. Bile inhibits growth. Some strains (38%) of produce colonies with a tan to black pigment when they are grown on rabbit blood agar. The type strains are ATCC 51259 and ATCC 51261. In addition, the description of is emended to exclude strains now recognized as members of .
