• Notes:
  • 🧕 Goodfellow and Williams (1983) assigned this genus to the uncategorized "Actinoplanetes" Goodfellow and Williams 1983. Publication: Goodfellow M, Williams ST. Ecology of actinomycetes. Annu Rev Microbiol 1983; 37:189-216.
  • 🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Actinoplanes Couch 1950 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Stackebrandt E, Kroppenstedt RM. Union of the genera Actinoplanes Couch, Ampullariella Couch, and Amorphosporangium Couch in a redefined genus Actinoplanes. Syst. Appl. Microbiol. 1987; 9:110-114.
  • 🙄 This taxon name is occasionally misprinted (or affected by an OCR error) in some sources as: "Ampullareilla"; "Ampullariclla"; "Ampullarirlla"; "Ampulluriella"; "Ampuraliella"; "Anzpullariella".
  • ❗ Ampullariella is the correct name instead if this genus is regarded as a separate genus (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another genus whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority).
  • 🎰 The BRCs most frequently used for deposits in this group are: IFO: 5; NBRC: 5; DSM: 4; NRRL: 4; JCM: 4; VKM: 4; ATCC: 2; NCIMB: 1; CGMCC: 1.
  • 🧍 Pittman et al. (1991) suggested the abbreviation "APRL" for this genus name but this does not appear to be of practical relevance any longer. Publication: Pittman KF, Walczak CA, Lock CM. Codes and abbreviations for approved of effectively published names of genera of bacteria published from January 1980 to December 1990. Int J Syst Bacteriol 1991; 41:571-579.
