Overview

  • Senegalimassilia faecalis is a Gram-positive, strictly anaerobic, non-motile, coccobacillus bacterium. The DNA G+C content is 61.2%. Senegalimassilia faecalis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Han2020)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces (Han2020). Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
