Phocaeicola abscessus is a species of obligately anaerobic, Gram-negative bacterium in the family Bacteroidaceae. It is the type species of the genus Phocaeicola and was first isolated from a brain abscess sample from a human patient in Foça, Turkey.[1]
Taxonomy
The species was first described in 2009, based on phylogenetic and phenotypic analyses. It was proposed as both a novel species and the type species of the newly established genus Phocaeicola. The genus name is derived from the ancient Greek city of Phocaea (modern-day Foça), where the type strain was isolated.[2]
