- Source: Vagococcus
Vagococcus is a genus of gram-positive bacteria. They are motile or nonmotile cocci which do not form spores. The name Vagococcus comes from Latin adjective vagus meaning wandering; and the Greek noun coccus a grain or berry, Vagococcus - wandering coccus, because Vagococcus fluvialis and some other Vagococcus species are motile, an unusual property for a lactic acid bacteria.
History
The first Vagococcus species, Vagococcus fluvialis, was isolated from chicken feces in 1974. However, the genus was not recognized as distinct until 1989.
