Isolation and identification of cultivable Bifidobacterium spp. from the faeces of 5 baby common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus L.)

Bifidobacterium myosotis sp. nov., Bifidobacterium tissieri sp. nov. and Bifidobacterium hapali sp. nov., isolated from faeces of baby common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus L.)

“…In a previous work, Michelini et al (2015) explored bifidobacterial distribution in baby common marmosets. A total of 92 bifidobacterial strains were isolated from samples of fresh rectal swabs from five individuals.…”

Bifidobacterium aerophilum sp. nov., Bifidobacterium avesanii sp. nov. and Bifidobacterium ramosum sp. nov.: Three novel taxa from the faeces of cotton-top tamarin ( Saguinus oedipus L.)

“…mammals, birds, ungulates, 83 lagomorphs and rodents) and insect pollinators [1,11,12,15,31]. To date, studies on bifidobacterial 84 distribution in New World monkeys and lemurs have described the presence of twelve novel species 85 belonging to this genus [5,23,[25][26][27]. 86…”

Bifidobacterium eulemuris sp. nov., isolated from faeces of black lemurs (Eulemur macaco)

“…As a result, 11 novel bifidobacterial species have been described from the prosimian Lemur catta and from two New World monkey species, Callithrix jacchus and Saguinus midas (Endo et al, 2012;Michelini et al, 2015Michelini et al, , 2016Modesto et al, 2014). From apes, the novel species Bifidobacterium moukalabense was isolated from the faeces of a wild gorilla (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) (Tsuchida et al, 2014).…”
