The most common bacterial species isolated from the vaginas of 37 healthy rhesus macaques were Streptococcus viridans, coagulase negative Staphylococcus, Mobiluncus curtisii ss. curtisii, Corynebacterium renale-like organisms, Peptostreptococcus anaerobius, Gardnerella-like organisms, and other Corynebacterium species. The vaginal flora of the rhesus macaque differs from that previously reported for five other primate species. A two-year retrospective review of clinical cases of vaginitis and metritis found Escherichia coli and coagulase positive Staphylococci to be the most common pathogens isolated.
从37只健康恒河猴阴道中分离出的最常见细菌种类为草绿色链球菌、凝固酶阴性葡萄球菌、柯氏动弯杆菌柯氏亚种、肾棒状杆菌样菌、厌氧消化链球菌、加德纳菌样菌以及其他棒状杆菌属菌种。恒河猴的阴道菌群与之前报道的其他五种灵长类动物的阴道菌群不同。一项对阴道炎和子宫炎临床病例的两年回顾性研究发现，大肠杆菌和凝固酶阳性葡萄球菌是分离出的最常见病原体。
