• Notes:
  • 🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Azomonas Winogradsky 1938 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: New PB, Tchan YT. Azomonas macrocytogenes (ex Baillie, Hodgkiss, and Norris 1962, 118) nom. rev. Int. J. Syst. Bacteriol. 1982; 32:381-382.
  • ❗ Azomonotrichon 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: 1; CIP: 1; NCAIM: 1; NCIMB: 1; ATCC: 1; LMG: 1.
  • 🧍 Pittman et al. (1991) suggested the abbreviation "AZTR" for this genus name but this does not appear to be of practical relevance any longer. Publication: Pittman KF, Walczak CA, Lock CM.
