2 During recent meetings of the ICSP Subcommittee on the taxonomy of Campylobacter and related bacteria, the members agreed to discourage the use of the name ¤ Campylobacter hyoilei in favour of Campylobacter coli. However, the strains originally described as ¤ Campylobacter hyoilei may represent a variant of Campylobacter coli that is highly adapted for the porcine enteric tract, with pathologic consequences for the animal. Therefore, the epithet hyoilei could in principle be reused as an infrasubspecific designation, if reliable pathogenic, phenotypic or genetic traits can be determined for identification.

3 According to P.A.R. Vandamme [1], the subspecific epithet venerealis is incorrect. The formation of venerealis is derived from a combination of the Latin adjective venereus and the suffix -alis, used to form an adjective. As, it is grammatically incorrect to combine an adjective-forming suffix to a word that is already an adjective, the subspecific epithet should be venereus. However, members of the Subcommittee on the taxonomy of Campylobacter and related bacteria [2] reached a consensus to correct the etymology of the subspecific epithet venerealis. The correct etymology is: ve.ne.re.a'lis. N.L. (arbitrary) adj. venerealis, pertaining to venereal disease.

2 During recent meetings of the ICSP Subcommittee on the taxonomy of Campylobacter and related bacteria, the members agreed to discourage the use of the name Campylobacter hyoilei in favour of ¤ Campylobacter coli. However, the strains originally described as Campylobacter hyoilei may represent a variant of ¤ Campylobacter coli that is highly adapted for the porcine enteric tract, with pathologic consequences for the animal. Therefore, the epithet hyoilei could in principle be reused as an infrasubspecific designation, if reliable pathogenic, phenotypic or genetic traits can be determined for identification.

Note: Members of the Subcommittee on the taxonomy of Campylobacter and related bacteria had noted that the specific epithet mucosalis was erroneously formed. This required correction of the spelling of the epithet or, alternatively, correction of the etymology. The subcommittee members reached a consensus to correct the etymology of the specific epithet mucosalis. The correct etymology is: mu.co.sa'lis. N.L. adj. mucosalis, pertaining to the (tunica) mucosa mucous membrane.

Note: The name Campylobacter pylori subsp. mustelae Fox et al. 1988 has been proposed for strains isolated from ferrets because high levels of deoxyribonucleic acid relatedness of these strains to the type strain of Campylobacter pylori corrig. Marshall et al. 1985. Subsequent deoxyribonucleic acid relatedness studies indicate that the original results were in error. The strains isolated from ferrets are members of a species that is distinct from Campylobacter pylori and elevated to species status.
