    • 😢 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. Whether taxa can have "members" is debatable. See the LPSN phylogeny page for details.

• Notes:
  • 💁 Taxonomists who have recently focused on this group are the corresponding authors of Hahn et al. (2010), Jung et al. (2024). Editors in search of reviewers are advised to consider additional criteria such as whether a taxon is covered by one of the ICSP subcommittees.
  • 🎰 The BRCs most frequently used for deposits in this group are: DSM: 4; KACC: 2; CIP: 2; CCUG: 2; TBRC: 1; NBRC: 1.
