The growth characteristics, DNA G+C content and sequences of 16S rDNA and the transcribed 16S--23S rDNA internal spacer were determined for Desulfomonas pigra ATCC 29098(T), Desulfovibrio desulfuricans subsp. desulfuricans strains Essex 6(T) (=ATCC 29577(T)) and MB (=ATCC 27774) and 'Desulfovibrio fairfieldensis' ATCC 700045. Despite phenotypic differences (shape and motility) between Desulfomonas pigra and Desulfovibrio strains, the molecular analysis suggests that Desulfomonas pigra should be reclassified within the genus Desulfovibrio. Thus, the reclassification is proposed of Desulfomonas pigra, the type and only species of the genus, as Desulfovibrio piger comb. nov., which implies the emendation of the description of the genus Desulfovibrio.
