We propose that these taxa be classified as members of the genus Enterococcus, as Enterococcus avium nom. rev., comb. nov., Enterococcus casseliflavus nom. rev., comb. nov., Enterococcus durans nom. rev., comb. nov., Enterococcus malodoratus sp. nov., and Enterococcus gallinarum comb. nov., respectively. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/00207713-34-2-220
