"Mycolicibacter sinensis" (formerly "Mycobacterium sinense"^[1]) is a species of bacteria from the phylum Actinomycetota that was isolated from a human manifesting tuberculosis-like disease.^[3] It is susceptible to ethambutol ^[3] but is resistant to most other anti-tuberculosis drugs.^[4] It has also been isolated from domestic and wild animals.^[5]
