Note: Pongratz 1957 [1] reported that upon isolation on solid media, colonies appear as smooth or rough types. On page 71, the type strain is designated as PS728 (S for smooth) = ATCC 33881 = IFAM PS728, and on page 72, the type strain is given as PR728 (R for rough) = ATCC 33881 = IFAM PR728. According to Rule 33b note 2 the type strain should be PR728 = ATCC 33881 = IFAM PR728. However, Moore and Weiner 1989 [2] give the strain PS278 = ATCC 33881 = IFAM PS728 as the type strain.
