• Notes:
  • 🧕 Zhi et al. (2009) assigned this family to the suborder Frankiineae corrig. Stackebrandt et al. 1997. Publication: Zhi XY, Li WJ, Stackebrandt E.

  • 🧍 Replacement of the illegitimate name Microsphaeraceae Rainey et al. 1997, which is illegitimate because the type genus (Microsphaera Yoshimi et al. 1996) is illegitimate (see Microsphaera). Consequently, a new family designation Nakamurellaceae has been proposed by Tao et al. 2004. Publication: Tao TS, Yue YY, Chen WX, Chen WF. Proposal of Nakamurella gen. nov. as a substitute for the bacterial genus Microsphaera Yoshimi et al. 1996 and Nakamurellaceae fam. nov. as a substitute for the illegitimate bacterial family Microsphaeraceae Rainey et al. 1997.
