Note: Krishnamurthi and Chakrabarti 2009 propose to transfer ¤ Pelagibacillus goriensis Kim et al. 2007 (the type species of the genus Pelagibacillus) to the genus ¤ Terribacillus as ¤ Terribacillus goriensis (Kim et al. 2007) Krishnamurthi and Chakrabarti 2008, comb. nov. According to Rule 37a, bacteriologists adhering to this proposal must change the name Pelagibacillus to ¤ Terribacillus.
