[Taxonomic study of enterobacteria belonging or related to the genus Klebsiella (author's transl)].

This work studies the classification, by numerical procedure, of 122 strains belonging or related to the genus Klebsiella. Four classes can be defined: J (= K. pneumoniae: 29 strains for the most isolated from human faeces), K (related to K. pneumoniae and to K. oxytoca: 24 strains isolated from water), L (related to K. pneumoniae although, tetrathionate-reductase+, m-hydrobenzoate+: 37 strains isolated from water or soil), M (= K. oxytoca: 22 strains for the most isolated from water). The importance of the origins of the strains is emphasized.

[Taxonomic study of enterobacteria belonging or related to the genus Enterobacter (author's transl)].

The classification of 175 strains related to the genus Enterobacter has been carried out by numerical procedure, with usual biochemical and nutritional characters as shown by the utilization of substrates tested as sole sources of carbon and energy. The taxonomic position of the strains is discussed in relation to the species E. cloacae, E. hafniae, E. aerogenes, E. agglomerans and Serratia liquefaciens. By the system of data analysis used (hierarchical agregation method) five principal classes can be defined. The individualization of new classes closely bound to the diverse origins of the strains examined (human, soil, aquatic).

[Taxonomic positions of H2S-Enterobacteria in relation to the genus (Citrobacter) (author's transl)].

This work studies the classification, by numerical procedure, of 111 strains belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae. Their taxonomic position is discussed, in relation to the genus Citrobacter, Levinea, Enterobacter, to which some appear to be closely associated. The study is based on the usual biochemical and nutritional characters as shown by the utilisation of substrates tested as sole sources of carbon and energy. Six hierarchical classes can thus be defined. Their degree of affinity with members of the Enterobacteriaceae groups or genera is discussed. The diverse origins of the strains examined (human, soil, aquatic) are certainly the cause for the individualization of the new classes.
