Abstract
Most of the Gordonia species described earlier have been considered as opportunistic pathogens in humans, but recently described species have been isolated from the environment with notable roles in bioremediation or the biodegradation of pollutants. A gram-positive slightly acid-fast nocardioform bacterium, strain SD256 (DSM 45847), was isolated from a granulomatous lymph node of a zebu cow at Kaduqli, western Sudan, was subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. The strain was found to have morphological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic properties that were consistent with its assignment to the genus Gordonia .
