• Notes:
  • 🥇 Nomenclatural type of the family Carbonactinosporaceae Volpiano et al. 2021. Publication: Volpiano CG, Sant'Anna FH, da Mota FF, Sangal V, Sutcliffe I, Munusamy M, Saravanan VS, See-Too WS, Passaglia LMP, Rosado AS.

  • 🧕 Volpiano et al. (2021) assigned this genus to the family Carbonactinosporaceae Volpiano et al. 2021. Publication: Volpiano CG, Sant'Anna FH, da Mota FF, Sangal V, Sutcliffe I, Munusamy M, Saravanan VS, See-Too WS, Passaglia LMP, Rosado AS.

  • 🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Streptomyces Waksman and Henrici 1943 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Gadkari D, Schricker K, Acker G, Kroppenstedt RM, Meyer O. Streptomyces thermoautotrophicus sp. nov., a Thermophilic CO- and H(2)-Oxidizing Obligate Chemolithoautotroph. Appl Environ Microbiol 1990; 56:3727-3734.
  • 🙄 This taxon name is occasionally misprinted (or affected by an OCR error) in some sources as: "Carbonactispora".
  • 😢 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.
  • ❗ Carbonactinospora 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; KCTC: 1; NBRC: 1; LMG: 1.
