A Piecemeal Description of (Krainsky) Waksman and Henrici Free

Abstract

SUMMARY

Forty-six of the 48 strains named in our collection have in common a distinctive pattern of properties and are believed to represent a recognizable taxonomic group, or aggregate, of this polytypic species. Seventy-seven additional strains bearing 51 different species names were found to possess the same pattern of characteristics. The distinguishing properties of this aggregate are described and compared with those of . , . and . .
