The increasing availability of whole genome sequencing of bacteria has accelerated the discovery of novel species which may not have been easy to discriminate using standard phenotypic or single gene methods. Phylogenomic analysis of genome sequences from a collection of coagulase-negative staphylococcal species isolated from captive fruit bats revealed two clusters which were close to <i>Staphylococcus kloosii</i>. To assess the relatedness of the strains we used digital DNA-DNA hybridization ( ...[more]
