Staphylococcus capitis is a coagulase-negative, Gram-positive coccus commonly found on the human scalp and face, particularly in sebaceous gland-rich areas. It is part of the normal skin microbiome of humans and primates. This commensal bacterium feeds on skin lipids and occasionally causes opportunistic infections in neonates and immunocompromised patients.
