Yersinia enterocolitica and Yersinia-like Organisms Isolated from Frogs and Snails

Abstract

Isolations were made of Yersinia enterocolitica from a leopard frog (Rana pipiens) and of eight other Yersinia-like organisms from two green frogs (Rana clamitans) and a snail (Lymnaea palustris). Biochemical and serological characterizations of the isolates are presented.
