Twenty-three strains of catalase-negative campylobacters and five strains of "Campylobacter fecalis," which is catalase-positive, were examined by DNA hybridization experiments. These organisms formed four distinct DNA homology groups corresponding to Campylobacter sputorum, Campylobacter mucosalis, Campylobacter concisus, and a currently unnamed group referred to as the "catalase-negative or weak" (CNW) strains. The strains were further characterized to determine which phenotypic characteristics provide the most reliable identification at the species level. Campylobacter sputorum ssp. sputorum, C. sputorum ssp. bubulus, and "C. fecalis" could not be distinguished by DNA homology; consequently, it is proposed that these three taxa be considered as biovars of C. sputorum. The description of C. sputorum is emended accordingly. ATCC strain 35980 is proposed as the neotype strain of C. sputorum.
