Abstract

SUMMARY: The physiological and general characters of 123 strains of were examined, and 33 of these were compared, in a computerized numerical analysis, with and It was concluded that and are distinct monospecific genera, not closely related.

On physiological grounds, bore the nearest resemblance to faecal streptococci, and to other streptococci.
