Belongs to the capsulated 























bacilli ; differs from B, 





























lactis aerogenes in not 





























fermenting inosite; dif- 





























fers from B. coli tropi- 





























calis in being capsu- 





























lated and in fermenting 





























adonite and not fer- 





























menting salicin.

lactose not fermenters, 





























Gram O {B. diffluens).
