Soteropolitana

Soteropolitana R 93 1976

Strain R 93 was isolated from a cavia (Cavia aperca azarae) trapped near Salvador, Bahia state, and was described as a new serovar of the Australis group, named soteropolitana (Silva, 1976). As the separate serovar status had not yet been confirmed, it is listed under provisional status (+) in the Revised List (Kmety, Dikken, 1988) and the attached updated list. Strain R 93 is probably the strain sent out to the reference laboratories under the designation Solteropolitana. In the Instituto Superiore di Sanita in Rome the strain is maintained under the original name R 93.
