The genus Arcanobacterium has expanded rapidly, with an increasing number of species described from domestic and wildlife hosts, underscoring the need for clearer delineation of species boundaries. In this study, 12 isolates initially presumed to belong to Arcanobacterium canis were examined using comparative phenotypic and genomic approaches to clarify their taxonomic position. The isolates showed partial...
