Note: Chen et al. 2013 propose to transfer ¤ Catellibacterium nectariphilum Tanaka et al. 2004 (the type species of the genus Catellibacterium) to the genus ¤ Gemmobacter as ¤ Gemmobacter nectariphilus (Tanaka et al. 2004) Chen et al. 2013, comb. nov. According to Rule 37a, bacteriologists adhering to this proposal must change the name Catellibacterium to ¤ Gemmobacter.
