| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Yersinia |
| Species: | Yersinia mollaretii |
| Description: | Yersinia mollaretii the name was given to this species in honor of "Henri H. Mollaret",head of the National Yersinia Center at the Pasteur Institute in Paris,for his years of study on the classification and epidemiology in the genus Yersinia.Formerly called Yersina enterocolitica biogroup 3A (Bercovier et al., 1978).
