</script>In the last 25 years, outbreaks of Acinetobacter infection have been a growing concern in hospitals (Bergogne-Berezin et al., 1987, this volume; Noble, this volume). These infections can be difficult to treat since strains are commonly resistant to multiple antimicrobial agents. In 1986 the taxonomy of the genus Acinetobacter was changed extensively. At least 19 DNA hybridisation groups have now been delineated (Bouvet and Grimont, 1986; Nishimura et al., 1988; Bouvet and Jeanjean, 1989; Tjernberg and Ursing, 1989) and five new species have been described: A. baumannii, A. haemolyticus, A. junii, A. johnsonii and A. radioresistens. In addition, the original descriptions of A. calcoaceticus and A. lwoffii have been emended (Grimont, this volume).
