摘要：
A new genus and a new species, Weeksella virosa, are proposed. Each of the 29 strains placed in the new species was examined for 129 characteristics, including reactions in 58 enzyme tests (API ZYM System). These bacteria are rod-shaped, aerobic, Gram-negative, non-motile, and non-saccharolytic. The mean G + C content of the DNA of five representative strains is 37.3 .+-. 0.5 mol%. DNAs from the nine strains tested were 96% to 100% related to labelled DNA from the type strain, 9751 (= NCTC 11634). All strains of the new species were isolated from human clinical specimens, of which the urinogenital tract was the most common source.
