2 In a request for an opinion, S.M. Alcorn and V.T. Orum [1] presented evidence that the type strain of Pectobacterium carnegieana (syn. Erwinia 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.
