Proposing merge from junior synonym Streptococcus bovis to accepted name Streptococcus equinus

Merge - Streptococcus bovis is a junior synonym and Streptococcus equinus is the accepted name.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4] — Preceding unsigned comment added by NessieVL (talk • contribs) 19:10, 27 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - Looking at the fourth reference you give above, the most recent study (2003), it does not state that they are synonymous, as far as I can see, but that they are both part of a species complex. I suggest we leave the articles as they are. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:36, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
