• Notes:
  • 🧕 Frolov et al. (2023) assigned this class to the phylum Thermodesulfobiota Frolov et al. 2023. Publication: Frolov EN, Lebedinsky AV, Elcheninov AG, Kublanov IV. Taxonomic proposal for a deep branching bacterial phylogenetic lineage: transfer of the family Thermodesulfobiaceae to Thermodesulfobiales ord. nov., Thermodesulfobiia classis nov. and Thermodesulfobiota phyl. nov. Syst Appl Microbiol 2023; 46:126388. 🇷🇺
  • 🧒 Frolov et al. (2023) assigned the genus Thermodesulfobium Mori et al. 2004 to this class. Publication: Frolov EN, Lebedinsky AV, Elcheninov AG, Kublanov IV. Taxonomic proposal for a deep branching bacterial phylogenetic lineage: transfer of the family Thermodesulfobiaceae to Thermodesulfobiales ord. nov., Thermodesulfobiia classis nov. and Thermodesulfobiota phyl. nov.

  • 🧒 Frolov et al. (2023) assigned the order Thermodesulfobiales Frolov et al. 2023 to this class. Publication: Frolov EN, Lebedinsky AV, Elcheninov AG, Kublanov IV.

  • 😢 The terminology used by the authors is in line with many other taxonomic studies and does not negatively affect their main results; some improvements may nevertheless be possible. Names but not taxa can be validly published. Whether taxa can have "members" is debatable. See the LPSN phylogeny page for details. Publication: Göker M. What can genome analysis offer for bacteria? In: Bridge P, Smith D, Stackebrandt E (eds), Trends in the systematics of bacteria and fungi, CAB International, Wallingford, 2021, p. 255-281. 🇬🇧
  • ❗ Thermodesulfobiia 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).
  • 🧍 Nomenclatural type changed from Thermodesulfobiales Frolov et al. 2023 based on new Rule 22. Publication: Oren A. Emendation of Rules 8, 15, 22, 25a, 30(3)(b), 30(4), 34a, and Appendix 7 of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2023; 73:6070. 🇮🇱
