It is usually a harmless skin infection but can cause problems in immunocompromised patients. He's probably saying "staph hominis sepsis."

When is Staphylococcus not capital? This is confusing me.
I always thought Staphyloccocus was capitalized until on my QA I was told different, but can't find the reason and it's been a while since this happened.  Now it bothers me not knowing how to determine whether I'm capitalizing it when its not supposed to be.  Can you help me with this?  Thanks
