Janibacter massiliensis is a species of Gram positive, aerobic, bacterium. The species was initially isolated from the vaginal discharge of a 45-year-old French woman with bacterial vaginosis. The species was first described in 2019, and the species name refers to Massilia, the ancient name for Marseille, the city from which the species was first isolated.[1]
