  • 🚃 The type genus of this family has alternatively been placed in the family Neisseriaceae Prévot 1933 (Approved Lists 1980).

  • 🙄 This taxon name is occasionally misprinted (or affected by an OCR error) in some sources as: "Chitinibacteriaceae".
  • ❗ Chitinibacteraceae is the correct name instead if this family is regarded as a separate family (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another family whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority).
