Unfortunately, the strain deposited as the type strain was, by error, an Actinobaculum schaalii strain ( Yassin et al., 2015 ). In 2015, we isolated a new strain of A. massiliense , FC3, from the urine of a 12-year-old patient with acute cystitis. We herein present the characteristics of strain FC3 (=CSUR P1982=DSM 100580) and formally propose it as the neotype strain of A. massiliense. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijsem.0.001110
