Kitasatoa Matsumae and Hata 1968, genus.
Type species: ¤ Kitasatoa purpurea Matsumae and Hata 1968 (Approved Lists 1980).
Etymology: N.L. fem. n. Kitasatoa, named for Kitasato, a Japanese bacteriologist (1852-1931).

→ ¤ Streptomyces Waksman and Henrici 1943 (Approved Lists 1980).
Note: Goodfellow et al. 1986 propose to transfer ¤ Kitasatoa purpurea Matsumae and Hata 1968 (Approved Lists 1980), the type species of the genus Kitasatoa, to the genus ¤ Streptomyces as ¤ Streptomyces purpureus (Matsumae and Hata 1968) Goodfellow et al. 1986, comb. nov. According to Rule 37a, bacteriologists adhering to this proposal must change the name Kitasatoa to ¤ Streptomyces.
