A total of 23 strains of yersinias, Y. enterocolitica (17), Y. frederiksenii (5) and Y. intermedia (1) characterized according to bio‐serogroup and phage type, were isolated from human, animal and environmental samples during a 5‐year period. It appears that in the Pesaro–Urbino area Yersinia spp. are infrequent and the strains of Y. enterocolitica belong to environmental and rarely to human pathogenic bioserogroups. and accepted 22 May 1989
