Abstract

Strains from the intestines of pigs which were originally identified as Streptococcus salivarius were found to be distinct from this species and from other streptococci associated with the intestines of animals. The name Streptococcus hyointestinalis is proposed for the new species. The type strain is strain S93 (= DSM 20770).
