We here describe a novel species in the Staphylococcus intermedius Group (SIG) which is phenotypically similar to Staphylococcus pseudintermedius but is genomically distinct from it and other SIG members, with an average nucleotide identity of 90.2 % with its closest relative S. intermedius. The description of Staphylococcus cornubiensis sp. nov. is based on strain NW1 (=NCTC 13950=DSM 105366) isolated from a human skin infection in Cornwall, UK. Although pathogenic, NW1 carries no known virulence genes or mobilizable antibiotic resistance genes and further studies are required to assess the prevalence of this species in humans as well as its potential presence in companion animals.
我们在此描述了中间葡萄球菌属（SIG）中的一个新物种，其表型与伪中间葡萄球菌相似，但在基因组上与伪中间葡萄球菌及其他SIG成员不同，与其亲缘关系最近的中间葡萄球菌的平均核苷酸同一性为90.2%。科尼葡萄球菌新种的描述基于从英国康沃尔郡一名人类皮肤感染患者分离出的菌株NW1（=NCTC 13950=DSM 105366）。尽管NW1具有致病性，但它不携带已知的毒力基因或可移动的抗生素耐药基因，需要进一步研究以评估该物种在人类中的流行情况及其在伴侣动物中的潜在存在情况。
