• Notes:
  • 🧒 Chuvochina et al. (2023) assigned the genus Peptococcus Kluyver and van Niel 1936 (Approved Lists 1980) to this class. Publication: Chuvochina M, Mussig AJ, Chaumeil PA, Skarshewski A, Rinke C, Parks DH, Hugenholtz P. Proposal of names for 329 higher rank taxa defined in the Genome Taxonomy Database under two prokaryotic codes. FEMS Microbiol Lett 2023; 0:0.
  • 🧒 Chuvochina et al. (2023) assigned the order Peptococcales Chuvochina et al. 2024 to this class.

  • ❗ Peptococcia is the correct name instead if this class is regarded as a separate class (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another class whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority).
