  • 🛺 The type genus of this family has been placed in the family Helicobacteraceae Garrity et al. 2006. Publication: Mino S, Kudo H, Arai T, Sawabe T, Takai K, Nakagawa S. Sulfurovum aggregans sp. nov., a hydrogen-oxidizing, thiosulfate-reducing chemolithoautotroph within the Epsilonproteobacteria isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent chimney, and an emended description of the genus Sulfurovum.

  • 🚃 The type genus of this family has alternatively been placed in the family "Thiovulgaceae" Campbell et al. 2006. Publication: Campbell BJ, Engel AS, Porter ML, Takai K. The versatile epsilon-proteobacteria: key players in sulphidic habitats. Nat Rev Microbiol 2006; 4:458-468.
  • ❗ Sulfurovaceae 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).
