NOTE: Corynebacterium phocae sp. nov., isolated from the common seal (Phoca vitulina) [PDF]
International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1998 Phenotypic and phylogenetic studies were performed on four strains of a Gram-positive non-acid-fast coryneform-like organism isolated from the nasal cavities of common seals (Phoca vitulina). Chemotaxonomic investigations revealed the presence of corynomycolic acids in the unidentified isolates, which is consistent with corynebacteria.
