'Aeromonas intestinalis' and 'Aeromonas enterica' isolated from human faeces, 'Aeromonas crassostreae' from oyster and 'Aeromonas aquatilis' isolated from lake water represent novel species.

ABSTRACT: Four Aeromonas strains from clinical and environmental samples differed from known species on the basis of rpoD gene sequence. Multilocus phylogenetic analysis and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization confirmed them as four new species even though their 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with their closest relatives was >98.7%, as occurred for other Aeromonas spp.
