  • 🧕 Boone et al. (2001) assigned this genus to the order Bifidobacteriales Stackebrandt et al. 1997. Publication: Garrity GM, Holt JG. The Road Map to the Manual.

  • 🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Actinomadura Lechevalier and Lechevalier 1970 (Approved Lists 1980).

  • 🙄 This taxon name is occasionally misprinted (or affected by an OCR error) in some sources as: "Ercellospora"; "Excelloseora".
  • ❗ Excellospora 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: JCM: 3; ATCC: 2; IFO: 2; DSM: 2; NBRC: 2; VKM: 1; CCRC: 1; BCRC: 1; CIP: 1; KCTC: 1.
  • 🧍 Pittman et al. (1991) suggested the abbreviation "EXSO" for this genus name but this does not appear to be of practical relevance any longer. Publication: Pittman KF, Walczak CA, Lock CM.
