AB Staphylococci  are  gram-positive  cocci  that  form  grapelike  clusters  on  Gram’s  stain;  they  are  catalase  positive  (unlike  streptococci),  nonmotile,  aerobic,  and  facultatively  anaerobic.  Staphylococcus  aureus,  which  is  distinguished  from  other  staphylococci  by  its  production  of  coagulase,  is  the  most  virulent  species.
