Salmonella enterica
http://plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0000077#article1.front1.article-meta1.abstract1.p1

As their name suggests Salmonella enterica are involved in causing diseases of the intestines (enteric means pertaining to the intestine). The three main serovars of Salmonella enterica are Typhimurium, Enteritidis, and Typhi. Each of these is discussed further below. These distinctions are are designed to help scientists distinguish similar bacteria from each other in papers and when discussing the genetics.
