Allomonas enterica gen. nov., sp. nov.: Deoxyribonucleic Acid Homology Between Allomonas and Some Other Members of the Vibrionaceae

Abstract
A group of organisms recovered from human intestinal tracts, sewage and river water were shown in a previous study to be related to members of the family Vibrionaceae. On the basis of additional comparative studies of the biochemical and metabolic properties of these organisms and their distinction from other members of the Vibrionaceae by DNA hybridization tests, it is proposed that this group of strains be designated ALLOMONAS enterica gen. nov., sp. nov. Strain 40 (= BKM B1485) is the type strain.
