• Emendations:
  • Yuan et al. 2015 Yuan PP, Zhang WJ, Han D, Cui HL. Haloarchaeobius salinus sp. nov., isolated from an inland salt lake, and emended description of the genus Haloarchaeobius. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2015; 65:910-914. Oren A, Garrity GM. Notification list. Notification that new names and new combinations have appeared in volume 65, part 3 of the IJSEM.

    Notes:
    • ⊕ Emendation accompanied by the proposal of 1 new species in the genus.
    • 😢 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. Using the term "phylogenetic data" (or equivalent) for sequence data is not advocated. See the LPSN phylogeny page for details.
