Abstract
Aerobic coryneform bacteria from human feet have been studied by analysis of the cell-wall sugars, lipids and diamino acids and by phenotypic tests. Although many isolates studied fall into the established genus Brevibacterium at least two previously unreported taxa of coryneform have been identified bringing the number of aerobic, non-lipophilic taxa known on skin to four. Simple tests can be used to distinguish between these taxa. Studies on the human skin flora continue to reveal the diversity of organisms present.
