C. coccoides sp. nov. is described on the basis of 12 strains isolated from a number of fecal specimens from mice fed a high-lactose diet. The isolates are obligately anaerobic, gram-positive, sporeforming, nonmotile, coccobacillary to rod-shaped cells which occur singly, in pairs and sometimes in chains. They differ from other clostridia principally in morphology; the nearly spherical form of the cells, particularly on agar media, is rather distinctive. The guanine plus cytosine (G + C) contents of the DNA of the new strains are 43-45 mol%, values similar to those of clostridia with high G + C contents, such as C. sphenoides, C. oroticum, C. indolis, C. innocuum, C. barkeri and C. nexile; C. coccoides can be clearly differentiated from these organisms by numerous biochemical characteristics and/or fermentation products. The type strain of C. coccoides is CLC-1 (= ATCC[American Type Culture Collection] 29236 = NCTC[National Collection of Type Cultures] 11035).
