1 Final identification was assigned using 16S rRNA gene identification as the reference method and if required with supplemental conventional tests.
2 Assignment to taxonomic level: S = species, G = genus, N = not identified.
3 Correctness of assignment: SC = correct at species level, SI = incorrect at species level, GC = correct at genus level, GI = incorrect at genus level, N = not identified.
4 Taxon included in the VITEK 2 NH database; Capnocytophaga spp. is included as genus.
5 Accepted as correct genus as Haemophilus aphrophilus was renamed as Aggregatibacter aphrophilus[22].
6Pasteurella multocida is included in the database of the VITEK 2 ID GNB card (bioMérieux).
