  • 💁 Taxonomists who have recently focused on this group are the corresponding authors of Zhi et al. (2009). Editors in search of reviewers are advised to consider additional criteria such as whether a taxon is covered by one of the ICSP subcommittees.
  • ❗ Yaniellaceae 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).
  • 🧍 Replacement of the illegitimate name Yaniaceae Li et al. 2005, which is illegitimate because the genus name Yania Li et al. 2004 is illegitimate. Consequently, a new family designation Yaniellaceae Li et al. 2008 has been proposed by Li et al. 2008. The genus Yaniella Li et al. 2008 (the type genus of the family Yaniellaceae Li et al. 2008) is in most 16S rRNA gene sequence-based phylogenetic analyses a member of the family Micrococcaceae Pribram 1929 (Approved Lists 1980) and it appears debatable whether it deserves the status as the type genus of its own family Yaniellaceae.
