| Aerobacter | An officially rejected generic name of bacteria. The type species is Aerobacter aerogenes. Motile organisms previously placed in this species are now placed in Enterobacter aerogenes; the nonmotile organisms have been transferred to Klebsiella pneumoniae. The species Aerobacter cloacae is now known as Enterobacter cloacae. Origin: aero-+ G. Bakterion, a small staff (05 Mar 2000) |
