Staphylococcus cornubiensis is a species of Gram-positive cocci in the Staphylococcus intermedius Group (SIG):[1] a group of genetically and phenotypically similar bacterial species that were previously identified as S. intermedius.[2][3] The bacterium was first isolated from a human skin infection in Cornwall, United Kingdom.[1] However, its presence in other species and/or pathologies has yet to be discussed in the literature. Another SIG bacterium, S. pseudintermedius, has also been implicated in cutaneous infections in humans–as a result of zoonotic transmission from domestic animals.[4][5] The other SIG species have been isolated from various wild and domestic animals; such as dogs, cats, horses, camels, and dolphins, among others.
