摘要：

In addition to the previously reported DNA hybridization and base composition data, comparison of the nucleotide sequence of 16S-ribosomal RNA fragments and the total cellular carbohydrate content of Tatlockia micdadei and Legionella pneumophila strains strongly support their separation into different genera. In the present study Legionella maceachernii was found to be very similar to T. micdadei, and like T. micdadei, it was easily distinguished from the other legionellae. Based on the accumulated phenotypic and genotypic data Legionella maceachernii should be transferred to the genus Tatlockia, as Tatlockia maceachernii comb. nov.
