2 In the Kilian's opinion [1] the change of the well-established name Erwinia ananas may be a source of confusion. So, with reference to the first Principle of the Bacteriological Code (1990 Revision), Kilian requested that the original name Erwinia ananas be conserved [2]. The Judicial Commission denied this request, and no Opinion will be issued upon this request [3].

2 In a request for an opinion, S.M. Alcorn and V.T. Orum [1] presented evidence that the type strain of Erwinia carnegieana (syn. Pectobacterium carnegieana) is a contaminant and that no culture corresponds to the description attached to this name and requested that both of these species names be rejected as nomen dubium. The Judicial Commission [2, 3] concluded that the species will simply disappear from use without the need to place the names on the list of nomina rejicienda.

Notes:
1 The original spelling of the specific epithet, persicinus (sic), has been corrected by Euzéby 1998.

2 According to Brenner et al. 1994, Erwinia persicina corrig. Hao et al. 1990 should be a later heterotypic synonym of "Erwinia nulandii" Schuster et al. 1981. Unfortunately, the name "Erwinia nulandii" was never validly published and has no standing in nomenclature. Therefore, despite the fact that "Erwinia nulandii" was published in 1981, Erwinia persicina corrig. Hao et al. 1990 is the validly published name for this species.
