ABSTRACT

Our present knowledge concerning the genotypic, chemotaxonomic, and phenotypic characteristics of members of the genus Flavobacterium and some related genera, including the genus Weeksella, was used to revise the classification of these organisms. The generically misclassified organisms Flavobacterium balustinum, Flavobacterium gleum, Flavobacterium indologenes, Flavobacterium indoltheticum, Flavobacterium meningosepticum, and Flavobacterium scophthalmum are included in a new genus, Chryseobacterium, with Chryseobacterium gleum as the type species. The generically misclassified organism Flavobacterium breve is included in the revived genus Empedobacter as Empedobacter brevis, whereas the generically misclassified organism Weeksella zoohelcum is included in the new genus Bergeyella as Bergeyella zoohelcum.
