Legionella tucsonensis is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella with a single polar flagellum, which was isolated from the pleural fluid of a renal transplant patient with immunosuppressive therapy in Tucson, Arizona. [3] [4] [5] [6]
Legionella oakridgensis is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from industrial cooling tower waters. It is pathogenic.
Legionella bozemanae is a Gram-negative bacterium in the family Legionellaceae. Its type strain is WIGA. It is associated with human pneumonia.
Legionella adelaidensis is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, aerobic bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from cooling tower water in Adelaide in South Australia.
Legionella beliardensis is a Gram-negative, catalase-positive, non-spore-forming, aerobic bacterium from the genus Legionella with a single polar flagellum, which was isolated from water from heating apparatus in Montbéliard in France.
Legionella cherrii is an aerobic, flagellated, Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella. It was isolated from a heated water sample in Minnesota. L. cherrii is similar to another Legionella species, L. pneumophila, and is believed to cause major respiratory problems.
Legionella cincinnatiensis is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, aerobic bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated in Cincinnati from an open lung biopsy specimen from a patient who had hemodialysis because of an end-stage renal disease and suffered from bronchopneumonia.
Legionella drozanskii is a Gram-negative, catalase-positive, oxidase-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from tank well water in Leeds in England.
Legionella dumoffii is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella with a monopolar flagellum which was isolated from lung tissue of a patient who suffered from fatal pneumonia. L. dumoffii occurs in soil and freshwater environments and can cause human pneumonia and accidentally induce other diseases such as prosthetic valve endocarditis and septic arthritis.
Legionella fairfieldensis is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella with a single polar flagellum, which was isolated from cooling tower water in Fairfield, Victoria.
Legionella fallonii is a Gram-negative, catalase-positive, weakly oxidase-positive bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from a ship air-conditioning system.
Legionella gormanii is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from soil samples from a creek bank in Atlanta and from the bronchial brush specimen of a patient who suffered from pneumonia. L. gormanii can cause atypical pneumonia together with L. pneumophila.
Legionella hackeliae is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from human lung aspirate in Pennsylvania.
Legionella israelensis is a Gram-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, motile bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from water from an oxidation pond in Ga'ash in Israel.
Legionella jordanis is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from the Jordan River in Bloomington, Indiana and from the sewage in DeKalb County, Georgia. L. jordanis is a rare human pathogen and can cause respiratory tract infections.
Legionella lansingensis is a Gram-negative, catalase- and oxidase-positive bacterium from the genus Legionella with a single polar flagellum which was isolated from a patient with pneumonia through bronchoscopy.

Legionella rubrilucens is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from tap water in Los Angeles, hot spring water in Niigata in Japan, and a patient who suffered from pneumonia.
Legionella steigerwaltii is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella isolated from tap water in St. Croix on the Virgin Islands.
Legionella norrlandica is a bacterium from the genus Legionella which has been isolated from a biopurification system.
