Enterococcus genera include commensal, environmental and human pathogen bacteria. For that reason, accurate identification is indispensable for both environmental and clinical studies. While phylogenetic trees based on comparative analysis of the 16S rDNA sequences is a standard identification and classification procedure, it was previously stated that some environmental strains of enterococci were incorrectly identified to the species level using this method [1].

Enterococcus genera include commensal, environmental and human pathogen bacteria. For that reason, accurate identification is indispensable for both environmental and clinical studies. While phylogenetic trees based on comparative analysis of the 16S rDNA sequences is a standard identification and classification procedure, it was previously stated that some environmental strains of enterococci were incorrectly identified to the species level using this method [1]. E. mundtii CRL1656 is a pigmented bacterium that was isolated from stripping milk of an Argentinean cow and its genome was recently sequenced [2]. The aim of this study was to properly infer the phylogenic history of the strain. Reference [1] Nayak, B.S., Badgley, B, Harwood, V.J.
