The Lachnospiraceae are a family of obligately anaerobic, variably spore-forming bacteria in the order Eubacteriales that ferment diverse plant polysaccharides to short-chain fatty acids and alcohols (ethanol). These bacteria are among the most abundant taxa in the rumen and the human gut microbiota. Members of this family may protect against colon cancer in humans by producing butyric acid. Lachnospiraceae have been found to contribute to diabetes in genetically susceptible (ob/ob) germ-free mice.
Gabonibacter is a genus from the family of Porphyromonadaceae which have been isolated from human sources.
Propionibacterium acidifaciens is a Gram-positive, anaerobic and pleomorphic bacterium from the genus of Propionibacterium which has been isolated from a human oral cavity in London in England.
Propioniferax innocua is a Gram-positive, non-spore-forming and non-motile bacterium from the genus Propioniferax which has been isolated from human skin.
Propionimicrobium lymphophilum is a Gram-positive bacterium which has been isolated from submaxillary tissue.
Cutibacterium is a bacterial genus from the family of Propionibacteriaceae.
Facklamia hominis is a Gram-positive and anaerobic bacteria from the family of Facklamia which has been isolated from humans. The genus Facklamia was first described in 1997 using 16S rRNA sequencing and has since been identified from both a wide range of animal sources and infrequently as a human pathogen.
Enterocloster citroniae, formerly Clostridium citroniae is a bacterium from the genus Enterocloster. The type species was isolated from a human infection in California in the United States.
Nocardioides massiliensis is a bacterium from the genus Nocardioides which has been isolated from human feces from Marseille, France.
Sediminibacillus is a genus of bacteria from the family of Bacillaceae. Sediminibacillus species are halophilic bacteria and found in salty human stools and marine sponges. Sediminibacillus species are identified from Plakortis dariae sponge of the Saint Martin's island of the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh.
Eisenbergiella is a genus of bacteria from the family of Lachnospiraceae.
Acinetobacter colistiniresistens is a bacterium from the genus of Acinetobacter which has been isolated from human infections.
Wohlfahrtiimonas is a genus of bacteria from the class Gammaproteobacteria.
Wohlfahrtiimonas chitiniclastica is a bacterium from the genus of Wohlfahrtiimonas which has been first isolated from the larva of Wohlfahrtia magnifica from Budapest in Hungary. Wohlfahrtiimonas chitiniclastica can cause sepsis in rare cases.
Roseovarius antarcticus is a Gram-negative and aerobic bacterium from the genus Roseovarius which has been isolated from a decayed bone from a whale from the eastern coast of King George Island in Antarctica.
Pyramidobacter is a gram-negative genus of bacteria from the family of Synergistaceae. Pyramidobacter piscolens has been isolated from the human mouth.
Peptoniphilus coxii is a bacterium from the genus Peptoniphilus which has been isolated from human infections.
Peptoniphilus lacydonensis is a Gram-positive, anaerobic and microaerophilic bacterium from the genus Peptoniphilus which has been isolated from a patient with chronic refractory sinusitis.
Vagococcus lutrae is a Gram-positive and coccus-shaped bacterium from the genus Vagococcus which has been isolated from a otter. Vagococcus lutrae can cause infection in humans in rare cases.
Acidipropionibacterium olivae is a Gram-positive bacterium from the genus of Acidipropionibacterium which has been isolated from Spanish-style green olives from Sevilla in Spain.
