The results of deoxyribonucleic acid-deoxyribonucleic acid and deoxyribonucleic acid-ribosomal ribonu- cleic acid hybridization studies demonstrated that Streptococcus faecalis and Streptococcus faecium are distantly related to the non-enterococcal streptococci (Streptococcus hovis and Streptococcus equinus) of serological group D and to other streptococci. On the basis of our results and those of previous studies, we propose that S. faecalis and S. faecium be transferred to the genus Enterococcus (ex Thiercelin and Jouhaud) nom. rev. as Enterococcus faecalis (Andrewes and Horder) comb. nov. and Enterococcus faecium (Orla-Jensen) comb. nov., respectively. A description of the genus Enterococcus nom. rev. and emended descriptions of E. faecalis and E. faecium are given. The streptococci belonging to serological group D can be divided into two physiologically different groups. Strepto- coccus faecalis and Streptococcus faecium were placed in the enterococcus division of the streptococci, whereas Streptococcus bovis and Streptococcus equinus were placed in the viridans division by Sherman (21). Kalina proposed (9) that Streptococcus faecalis and Streptococcus faecium should be transferred to the genus "Enterococcus." This distinction between the enterococci and Streptococcus bo- vis, Streptococcus equinus, and other streptococci has also been demonstrated by comparative biochemical (25) and immunological (14, 15) studies. More recently, nucleic acid studies (7, 12) have confirmed that Streptococcus faecalis and Streptococcus faecium are only distantly related to Streptococcus bovis and Streptococcus equinus. In particu- lar, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) homology studies (12) and comparative oligonucleo- tide cataloging of 16s rRNA (E. Seewaldt, Ph.D. thesis, Technische Universitat Munchen, Munich, Federal Repub- lic of Germany, 1982) have indicated that the enterococcal and non-enterococcal group D streptococci belong to differ- ent genera. In this paper we extend these studies, and on the basis of the data we propose that Streptococcus faecalis and Streptococcus faecium be transferred to the genus Entero- coccus (ex Thiercelin and Jouhaud) nom. rev. (22).
