( 1973 ) Aerobic bacteria occurring in the hind-gut of the cockroach, Blatta orientalis. PMID : 4571611 DOI : 10.1017/s0022172400046155 PMC : PMC2130441 Abstract >>
Methods are described for the isolation and identification of aerobic bacteria occurring naturally in the hind-gut of the cockroach Blatta orientalis captured from a number of wild sources, to establish whether or not human pathogens occurred naturally within the gut. During the investigation an organism was frequently found which could not be classified in any described species, and for which we propose the name Escherichia blattae.

( 2010 ) Gram-negative bacteria associated with brewery yeasts: reclassification of Obesumbacterium proteus biogroup 2 as Shimwellia pseudoproteus gen. nov., sp. nov., and transfer of Escherichia blattae to Shimwellia blattae comb. nov. PMID : 19661513 DOI : 10.1099/ijs.0.013458-0 Abstract >>
Phylogenetic analyses of type and reference strains of Obesumbacterium proteus biogroups 1 and 2 plus a novel isolate of biogroup 2 were carried out based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and partial sequences of four protein-coding genes (fusA, leuS, pyrG and rpoB). Both approaches revealed that O. proteus biogroup 1 strains were closely related to Hafnia alvei. Biogroup 2 strains, however, formed a distinct monophyletic clade of generic status that included Escherichia blattae. Phenotypic tests were consistent with the molecular classification and provided diagnostic features. It is proposed that biogroup 2 strains be placed in a new genus, Shimwellia gen. nov., as Shimwellia pseudoproteus sp. nov., with strain 521(T) (=DSM 3038(T)=LMG 24835(T)=NCIMB 14534(T)) as the type strain, and that Escherichia blattae be transferred to the genus Shimwellia as Shimwellia blattae comb. nov., with strain ATCC 29907(T) (=DSM 4481(T)) as the type strain.
