Consequently, several infraspecific subdivisions have been introduced, including DNA\u2013DNA hybridization groups, subgroups and genomovars. Recent comparative whole-genome sequence studies have corroborated and extended this heterogeneity and revealed the presence of four species among historical strains and new isolates which are now classified as\n                    <jats:italic>A. cryaerophilus<\/jats:italic>\n                    . The present study aimed to establish a simple formal classification of\n                    <jats:italic>A. cryaerophilus-<\/jats:italic>\n                    like bacteria that facilitate transparent communication by integrating genome sequence data of taxonomically well-characterized strains with biochemical characteristics. To this end, we propose three novel species:\n                    <jats:italic>Arcobacter crypticus<\/jats:italic>\n                    sp. nov.
