Mannheimia granulomatis is a species of Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic bacteria in the family Pasteurellaceae. It was originally described as Pasteurella granulomatis in 1990 and reclassified under the genus Mannheimia in 1999 based on DNA–DNA hybridization and 16S rRNA gene sequencing studies.[1]
