The present invention relates to new nucleic acid sequences derived from the ITS (Internal Transcribed Spacer) region, between the 16S and 23S ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) or rRNA genes, to be used for the specific detection and/or identification of Proteus species, in particular of Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris and/or Proteus penneri, in a biological sample. The present invention relates also to a method for the specific detection and/or identification of Proteus species, in particular Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris and/or Proteus penneri, using said new nucleic acid sequences derived from the ITS (Internal Transcribed Spacer) region. It relates also to nucleic acid primers to be used for the amplification of said spacer region of Proteus species in a sample.
