Notes:
1 Thalassobius gelatinovorus (Rüger and Höfle 1992) Arahal et al. 2005 appears in the November 2005 issue of the IJSEM. However, this name was not validly published [see Rule 27(3)]. In order to validly publish this new combination, Thalassobius gelatinovorus (Rüger and Höfle 1992) Arahal et al. 2006 was cited on Validation List 107.
2 In the effective publication, the basonym is erroneously cited as Ruegeria gelatinovorans (Rüger and Höfle 1992) Uchino et al. 1999.
