• Notes:
  • For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Arcobacter Vandamme et al. 1991. Publication: Levican A, Collado L, Aguilar C, Yustes C, Dieguez AL, Romalde JL, Figueras MJ. Arcobacter bivalviorum sp. nov. and Arcobacter venerupis sp. nov., new species isolated from shellfish. Syst Appl Microbiol 2012; 35:133-138.
  • The type species of this genus has alternatively been placed in the genus Haloarcobacter Pérez-Cataluña et al. 2019. Publication: Perez-Cataluna A, Salas-Masso N, Dieguez AL, Balboa S, Lema A, Romalde JL, Figueras MJ. Revisiting the Taxonomy of the Genus Arcobacter: Getting Order From the Chaos. Front Microbiol 2018; 9:2077.
  • Taxonomists who have recently focused on this group are the corresponding authors of Levican et al. (2015). Editors in search of reviewers are advised to consider additional criteria such as whether a taxon is covered by one of the ICSP subcommittees.
  • Halarcobacter is the correct name 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 dissection of Arcobacter was opposed by On et al. (2020). Publication: On SLW, Miller WG, Biggs PJ, Cornelius AJ, Vandamme P. A critical rebuttal of the proposed division of the genus Arcobacter into six genera using comparative genomic, phylogenetic, and phenotypic criteria. Syst Appl Microbiol 2020; 43:126108.
