A new phage typing scheme using wild bacteriophages isolated from sewage for phage typing Salmonella bareilly is described. Six hundred and thirty‐seven strains of Salm. bareilly could be separated into 11 different phage types using five wild phages. Overall typability was 94˙5%. These phages belonged to two different morphotypes, A1 and B1, and showed varying host range.
