Abstract
Twenty-three of 2446 strains of Enterobacteriaceae isolated from mollu sks were identified as Ewingella americana both biochemically and by D NA hybridization with strain S6/1111, The biochemical characteristics of the new strains showed few differences from previously reported str ains obtained from human clinical specimens. These are the first strai ns off. americana isolated from animals.
