Note: Tuskamura [1] proposed rejection of the name Nocardia farcinica as a nomen dubium because some strains bearing this name were members of the genus Mycobacterium. However, Chamoiseau [2] has already established two species, Mycobacterium senegalense (Approved Lists 1980) and Mycobacterium farcinogenes (Approved Lists 1980), to accomodate the farcy-associates strains of mycobacteria, thus eliminationg this source of confusion. Therefore the Judicial Commission voted to deny the action proposed [3, 4].
