→ ¤ Mobiluncus Spiegel and Roberts 1984.
Note: Hoyles et al. 2004 propose that ¤ Falcivibrio grandis Hammann et al. 1984 (the type species of the genus Falcivibrio Hammann et al. 1984) be a later heterotypic synonym of ¤ Mobiluncus mulieris Spiegel and Roberts 1984. According to Rule 37a, bacteriologists adhering to this proposal must change the name Falcivibrio Hammann et al. 1984 to ¤ Mobiluncus Spiegel and Roberts 1984.
