Identification of micrococci and relatives

[Clay Comstock]

Dear Bionetters,
	
I'm a student at Dickinson State University and I have recently isolated a 
unknown which I thought was of the genus Micrococcus but after further 
anaylsis I found that it also grows on 20% NaCL.  Which lead me to believe 
that it was of the genus Planococcus.  Then, I began looking at the genus 
Deinococcus and I am currently doing a UV test. I am using Bergey's Manual of 
Systematic Bacteriology vol. 2 1986.  

I would greatly appreciate if anyone could give me and further assistance to 
determine my isolate. Please send mail to comstock at plains.nodak.edu or post it 
on the bionet. 

Thanks
Clay Comstock
