2 The subspecific epithet urealyticus in Staphylococcus cohnii subsp. urealyticus corrig. Kloos and Wolfshohl 1991 is a later homonym of the subspecific epithet urealyticus in ¤ Staphylococcus capitis subsp. urealyticus corrig. Bannerman and Kloos 1991. Because no two subspecies within a genus may bear the same subspecific epithet (Rules 12b and 13c), urealyticus in the name Staphylococcus cohnii subsp. urealyticus corrig. will have to be replaced.
