Note: In the April 2012 issue of the IJSEM, Zhou et al. propose to transfer Arthrobacter albidus Ding et al. 2009 in the genus ¤ Sinomonas as ¤ Sinomonas albida (Ding et al. 2009) Zhou et al. 2012, comb. nov. The type strain is cited as LC13^T (=IAM 15386^T=CCTCC AB 206018^T). The IAM number cited in the original publication is associated with a collection that had ceased to operate prior to publication of the paper. The JCM has accessed many of the IAM strains. IAM 15386 was accessed as JCM 21830. However, according to Dr. T. Kudo (JCM), the strain JCM 21830 was not available at the time of publication. So, according to Rule 30 (3b), the new combination ¤ Sinomonas albida is not validly published.

Note: In the April 2012 issue of the IJSEM, Zhou et al. propose to transfer Arthrobacter echigonensis Ding et al. 2009 in the genus ¤ Sinomonas as ¤ Sinomonas echigonensis (Ding et al. 2009) Zhou et al. 2012, comb. nov. The type strain is cited as LC10^T (=IAM 15385^T=CCTCC AB 206017^T). The IAM number cited in the original publication is associated with a collection that had ceased to operate prior to publication of the paper. The JCM has accessed many of the IAM strains. IAM 15386 was accessed as JCM 21829. However, according to Dr. T. Kudo (JCM), the strain JCM 21829 was not available at the time of publication. So, according to Rule 30 (3b), the new combination ¤ Sinomonas echigonensis is not validly published.

Validation List no. 9 in IJSEM Online

Note:
Arthrobacter ilicis was first proposed as Arthrobacter ilicis (Mandel et al. 1961) Collins et al. 1982, comb. nov. [basonym ¤ Corynebacterium ilicis Mandel et al. 1961 (Approved Lists 1980)], type strain ATCC 14264= NCPPB 1228.
Strain ATCC 14264= DSM 20138 = NCPPB 1228 does not exhibit one of the original diagnostic features of ¤ Corynebacterium ilicis, namely pathogenesis on American holly (Ilex opaca), and cannot represent this species.
Following a Request for an Opinion [1], the Judicial Commission [2] has therefore ruled (i) that ATCC 14264= DSM 20138 = NCPPB 1228 cannot serve as the type of the species ¤ Corynebacterium ilicis, but may serve as the type of a different taxon, ¤ Arthrobacter ilicis Collins et al. 1982; and (ii) that the name ¤ Corynebacterium ilicis Mandel et al. 1961 (Approved Lists 1980) is represented by the type strain ICMP 2608 = ICPB CI144.
Consequently, (i) Arthrobacter ilicis is not a homotypic synonym of ¤ Corynebacterium ilicis Mandel et al. 1961 (Approved Lists 1980); (ii) reference to Mandel et al. 1961 in the author citation Arthrobacter ilicis (Mandel et al. 1961) Collins et al. 1982 is to be removed; (iii) Arthrobacter ilicis Collins et al. 1982 is a new species, not a new combination as cited in the Validation List no. 9; and (iv) any reference to Mandel et al. 1961 is not to be included in any future descriptions.
