    The document describes characteristics used to differentiate species within the genus Staphylococcus based on their colony pigmentation, ability to grow in high salt and temperature conditions, biochemical reactions, and carbohydrate fermentation patterns. A table is presented listing 22 species of Staphylococcus down the left column with 20 different characteristics tested across the top including colony pigment, growth in 10% and 15% NaCl, growth at 45°C, oxidase production, acetoin production, and acid production from 8 different carbohydrates. The results for each species are indicated in each box showing variations in phenotypes.
