Altogether 94 strains of the so‐called mannitol‐fermenting type of Str. bovis have been studied. These strains have been found to form a very homogeneous group of streptococci, culturally and biochemically. They differ clearly from the Str. bovis described by Orla‐Jensen. It is suggested that these streptococci should be considered as identical with the Str. faecalis septicus of Friedberg.
