Abstract

We report here the main characteristics of five new species 'Urmitella timonensis' strain Marseille-P2918^T (CSUR P2918), 'Blautia marasmi' strain Marseille-P2377^T (CSUR P2377), 'Lachnoclostridium pacaense' strain Marseille-P3100^T (CSUR P3100), 'Bacillus marasmi' strain Marseille-P3556^T (CSUR P3556) and 'Anaerotruncus rubiinfantis' strain MT15^T (CSUR P2276), which were isolated recently from stool samples taken from undernourished children in Niger and Senegal using microbial culturomics.

Keywords: Culturomics; human gut microbiota; malnutrition; new species; taxonogenomics.
