Abstract

Two strains, H8/1 and H16/1A, of Gram-stain-positive, coagulase-negative staphylococci were isolated from separate healthy domestic dogs in Scotland. Both strains were genome sequenced and their inferred DNA–DNA hybridisation indicates that H8/1 and H16/1A represent two novel species of the genus . On the basis of the results of genome sequence analysis (genome distance phylogeny and single nucleotide polymorphism analysis) H8/1 is most closely related to and H16/1A most closely related to . Also, average nucleotide identity distinguished H8/1 and H16/1A from and as did minor phenotypic differences. On the basis of these results, it is proposed that H8/1 and H16/1A represent novel species with the respective names and . The type strain of is H8/1 (=NCTC 14452=CCUG 74789). The type strain of is H16/1A (=NCTC 14451=CCUG 74790)
