Vagococcus е род на Грам-позитивни бактерии. Тие се немотилни коки, кои не се формираат ендоспори.[1]
Првиот вид од овој род, Vagococcus-luvialis, беше изолиран од пилешки фекалии во 1974 година. Меѓутоа, родот не беше признаен како посебен сѐ до 1989 година.

Vagococcus is a genus of gram-positive bacteria. They are motile or nonmotile cocci which do not form spores.[2] The name Vagococcus comes from Latin adjective vagus meaning wandering; and the Greek noun coccus a grain or berry, Vagococcus - wandering coccus, because Vagococcus fluvialis and some other Vagococcus species are motile, an unusual property for a lactic acid bacteria.[3]
The first Vagococcus species, Vagococcus fluvialis, was isolated from chicken feces in 1974. However, the genus was not recognized as distinct until 1989.[2]
