Abstract

Coagulase-negative, novobiocin-resistant staphylococci isolated from various animals were allocated to three new species. Strains isolated from the skin and nares of poultry and goats belong to Staphylococcus arlettae. S. equorum comprises strains isolated from the skin of healthy horses, whereas, S. kloosii is mainly found on the skin of various wild animals and only rarely on that of farm animals. The chemical composition of the cell walls of these new species is similar to that of S. xylosus and S. saprophyticus .
