Abstract
The morphology and cultural characteristics of bacteria of the Simonsiella genus isolated from erosions of oral mucosa are reported here. Direct microscopic examination of smeared oral swabs and the consequent selection of suitable culturing procedures and media are compulsory for recovering Simonsiella microorganisms from clinical specimens in routine work.
