Volume 2 of Bergey's Manual contains six sections covering all gram-positive bacteria except the actinomycetes. Bacteria are distributed among these sections on the basis of their shape, the ability to form endospores, acid fastness, oxygen relationships, the ability to temporarily form mycelia, and other properties.
