was found to reduce nitrate (contrary to the original description) at a rapid rate. In the conventional 0.1% nitrate broth, neither nitrite nor nitrate was detected after 24 hr. There was no assimilation of nitrate nitrogen, and the final product of nitrate reduction was nitrous oxide. Manometric studies and growth experiments indicated that the organism is incapable of reducing nitrous oxide.
C. nephridii
is gram-negative, grows on bile salts (5%) agar, EMB Agar, and MacConkey Agar. It was proposed that this species be transferrrd to the genus
