  • Notes:
    • 🧕 Göker (2022) assigned this genus to the family Paracoccaceae Liang et al. 2022. Publication: Goker M. Filling the gaps: missing taxon names at the ranks of class, order and family. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2022; 72:5638. 🇩🇪
    • 🧕 Kong et al. (2021) assigned this genus to the family Rhodobacteraceae Garrity et al. 2006. Publication: Kong YH, Sun C, Guo LL, Xu L, Wu YH, Xu XW. Alterinioella nitratireducens gen. nov., sp. nov., Isolated from Seawater in the West Pacific Ocean. Curr Microbiol 2021; 78:2455-2463. 🇨🇳
    • 😢 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. Contrasting the term "chemotaxonomic" with "phenotypic" is not recommended. 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. 🇬🇧
    • 🎰 The BRCs most frequently used for deposits in this group are: MCCC: 1; KCTC: 1.
