Berryella intestinalis is a Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, short rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 1 gut microbiome compilation study or metastudy. The DNA G+C content is 63.6%. Berryella intestinalis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Wylensek2020)

This organism has been recovered from the ileal content of a pig, USA. Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
