Correct name: Psychroserpens Bowman et al. 1997

  • Notes:
    • 🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Psychroserpens Bowman et al. 1997. Publication: Ping XY, Wang K, Zhang JY, Wang SX, Du ZJ, Mu DS. Psychroserpens luteolus sp. nov., isolated from Gelidium, reclassification of Ichthyenterobacterium magnum as Psychroserpens magnus comb. nov., Flavihalobacter algicola as Psychroserpens algicola comb. nov., Arcticiflavibacter luteus as Psychroserpens luteus comb. nov. Arch Microbiol 2022; 204:279. 🇨🇳
    • 😢 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. 🇬🇧
    • ❗ Flavihalobacter 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: KCTC: 1; CICC: 1.
