DNA base composition analyses on 35 Gram negative yellow pigmented rods indicated two distinct groups. The larger contained 29 strains with G + C contents of between 30·8 and 39·5% and comprise 19 non‐gliding, aflagellate strains and 10 gliding strains. The smaller, a heterogenous collection of six strains, had G + C contents in the 51·4–63% range.
