ABSTRACT

A new coagulase-negative subspecies, Staphylococcus saprophyticus subsp. bovis, is described on the basis of a study of five strains isolated from the anterior nares of cows. This subspecies is differentiated from the other novobiocin-resistant staphylococci by its phenotypic properties, cell wall composition, and levels of genetic relatedness. The type strain of the new subspecies is KV 12 (=CCM 4410).
