All the animals were imported to Japan as pets from Egypt, Thailand and the Netherlands. The phenotypic characterization (growth conditions, incubation periods, biochemical properties and cell morphologies), DNA G+C contents (37.4 mol% for strain OY2-1T<\/jats:sup>, 35.5 mol% for strain BR11-1T<\/jats:sup>, 35.7 mol% for strain FN15-2T<\/jats:sup> and 37.2 mol% for strain KS2-1T<\/jats:sup>), and sequence analyses of the 16S rRNA genes indicated that those strains belong to the genus \n \n Bartonella<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:ext-link>\n <\/jats:named-content>.

In phylogenetic trees based on the concatenated sequences of five loci, including the 16S rRNA, ftsZ<\/jats:italic>, gltA<\/jats:italic> and rpoB<\/jats:italic> genes and the ITS region, and on the concatenated deduced amino acid sequences of three housekeeping genes (ftsZ<\/jats:italic>, gltA<\/jats:italic> and rpoB<\/jats:italic>), all strains formed distinct clades and had unique mammalian hosts that could be discriminated from other known species of the genus \n \n Bartonella<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:ext-link>\n <\/jats:named-content>. These data strongly support the hypothesis that strains OY2-1T<\/jats:sup>, BR11-1T<\/jats:sup>, FN15-2T<\/jats:sup> and KS2-1T<\/jats:sup> should be classified as representing novel species of the genus \n \n Bartonella<\/jats:italic>\n <\/jats:ext-link>\n <\/jats:named-content>.
