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.

This taxon name is occasionally misprinted in some sources as: "Kelbsiella"; "Klebisiella"; "Klebseilla"; "Klebsiellaa".
