 AB    A new type of slowly growing, nonphotochromogenic mycobacterium was
       recovered from two patients with disseminated disease. The growth
       characteristics, acid fastness, acids were consistent with those for
       Mycobacterium species. The results of biochemical investigations, lipid
       analyses, and comparative 16S rRNA sequencing showed that these isolates
       represent a new slowly growing Mycobacterium species which is named
       Mycobacterium conspicuum.
