These serogroups include ''Salmonella'' Typhi, ''Salmonella'' Enteritidis, ''Salmonella'' Paratyphi, ''Salmonella'' Typhimurium, and ''Salmonella'' Choleraesuis. The serovars can be designated as written in the previous sentence (capitalized and non-italicized following the genus), or as follows: "''S. enterica'' subsp.
