Abstract
Twenty-two isolates belonging to group F of Lee, Donovan, and Furniss were submitted to an extensive phenotypic characterization. The results of a numerical analysis of the data indicated that this group consisted of two biotypes which were phenotypically distinct from 22 previously characterized species ofBeneckea andPhotobacterium as well as from 3 species ofvibrio. The guanine-plus-cytosine content in the DNAs from 8 strains of group F was found to be 50.8±0.2 mol%. A set of 10 readily determinable phenotypic properties was proposed for the differentiation of strains of group F from other related species.
