Haemophilus vaginalis (Amies & Jones) was closely related to H. influenzae, and formed a group with related species; H. vaginalis (Gardner & Dukes) and C. cervicis formed separate groups; but all three groups possessed common antigenic components. These strains of bacteria are among those reported as being related to Mycoplasma hominis, and their antigenic relationships are thus of importance in this connexion.", }
