Bacteriol. 91:356-366. 1966.-An unidentified beta-hemolytic gram-negative hemophilic bacillus was encountered during experiments for recovery of Listeria monocytogenes from rabbits after vaginal instillation. Cultural, morphological, biochemical, and serological properties of the isolate were studied, and comparisons were made with members of the genus Haemophilus and L. monocytogenes. Identity of the microorganism was not established.
