'''''Prevotella ruminicola''''' is a species of [[obligate anaerobe|obligately anaerobic]] bacterium in the family ''[[Prevotellaceae]]''. It is associated with the [[rumen]] of [[cattle]] and other [[ruminants]], where it contributes to the [[fermentation]] of plant-derived substrates. The species was originally described from the bovine rumen as ''Bacteroides ruminicola'' in 1958 and was later transferred to the genus ''[[Prevotella]]''.<ref name="Bryant1958">{{cite journal |last1=Bryant |first1=M.

== Taxonomy ==
The species was first described in 1958 as ''Bacteroides ruminicola'', one of several [[succinic acid]]-producing anaerobic bacteria isolated from bovine rumen material.<ref name="Bryant1958" /> In 1990, the genus ''Prevotella'' was proposed for several species formerly classified in ''Bacteroides'', including the transfer of ''B. ruminicola'' to ''Prevotella ruminicola''.<ref name="Shah1990" />

In 1997, ruminal isolates previously assigned to ''P. ruminicola'' were re-examined. This work led to the proposal of ''Prevotella brevis'', ''Prevotella bryantii'', and ''Prevotella albensis'', and to a narrower definition of ''P. ruminicola''.<ref name="Avgustin1997">{{cite journal |last1=Avgustin |first1=Gorazd |last2=Wallace |first2=R.
