• Notes:
  • 🧕 Fritz et al. (2004) assigned this genus to the family Hyphomicrobiaceae Babudieri 1950 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Fritz I, Strompl C, Abraham WR. Phylogenetic relationships of the genera Stella, Labrys and Angulomicrobium within the 'Alphaproteobacteria' and description of Angulomicrobium amanitiforme sp. nov. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2004; 54:651-657.
  • 🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Ancylobacter Raj 1983. Publication: Doronina NV, Chemodurova AA, Grouzdev DS, Koziaeva VV, Agafonova NV, Shi W, Wu L, Kaparullina EN. Ancylobacter moscoviensis sp. nov., novel facultatively methylotrophic bacteria from activated sludge and the reclassification of Starkeya novella (Starkey 1934) Kelly et al. 2000 as Ancylobacter novellus comb. nov., Starkeya koreensis Im et al. 2006 as Ancylobacter koreensis comb.nov., Angulomicrobium tetraedrale Vasil'eva et al. 1986 as Ancylobacter tetraedralis comb. nov., Angulomicrobium amanitiforme Fritz et al. 2004 as Ancylobacter amanitiformis comb. nov., and Methylorhabdus multivorans Doronina et al. 1996 as Ancylobacter multivorans comb. nov., and emended description of the genus Ancylobacter. Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek 2023; 116:153-170.
  • ❗ Angulomicrobium 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: DSM: 2; NCIMB: 1; VKM: 1.
  • 🧍 Pittman et al. (1991) suggested the abbreviation "ALMI" 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.
