A new species Streptococcus pleomorphus is described. It is obligately anaerobic and classified in the genus Streptococcus because it is a Gram-positive coccus growing in pairs and chains, with a homolactic fermentation of glucose producing L-lactic acid. The GC content of the DNA is 39 mol%. The organism has been mainly isolated from chickens, turkeys and ducks.
