Abstract

Strain Marseille-P9525^T is a Gram-positive, obligatory anaerobic and non-motile bacterium isolated from a human faecal micobiota. Its phenotypic pattern, including mass spectrometry peptide profile and genome sequence, support the proposal of a new species for which the name Enorma burkinafasonensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain has been deposited in a public collection.
