so this is getting rather esoteric, but where can i find a good resource for consulting the translations of different strains of bacteria in spanish? I'm looking for

lictobactoclorela

and

electobacterpilora

but I'm not sure that they are spelled thusly, or are all one word.

The definition I am trying to match is the bacteria which is believed to contribute to stomach ulcers.

Gracias!

If you try to translate into Spanish the names of these species, you will realise that we always use the Latin name. They are called almost the same in English.

Lactobacto chlorella

Helicobacter pylori

I should have thought of that- these names are not in English or Spanish, they are in Latin, so they should be the same - Stadt, Oct 1, 2010

I thought Helicobacter pylori was the generally accepted cause of stomach ulcers? What is your source?
