Abstract

The description ofSimonsiella muelleri Schmidin Simons 1992, 504 is emended on the basis of 18 axenic cultures from human oral cavities.Simonsiella steedae sp. nov. is proposed for a group of 19 strains from the oral cavities of dogs. Strain ATCC 29453 (ICPB 3636) has been designated the proposed neotype ofS. muelleri, and strain ATCC 27409 (ICPB 3604) the holotype ofS. steedae sp. nov. A key to the species of the genusSimonsiella is presented.
