Corynebacterium senegalense strain Marseille-P4329T (= CSURP4329) and Arthrobacter senegalensis strain Marseille-P4329T (= CSURP4198) are new species first isolated from human skin. A culturomics approach and taxonogenomics methods were used for these new bacterial species. Keywords: Arthrobacter senegalensis sp. nov., Corynebacterium senegalense sp. nov., culturomics, human skin, taxonogenomics
