    • 🙄 This taxon name is occasionally misprinted (or affected by an OCR error) in some sources as: "Crocinobacter".
    • ❗ Krokinobacter 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: CIP: 3; NBRC: 3.
