Type species: Maliponia aquimaris Jung et al. 2016

Valid publication: Jung YT, Lee JS, Yoon JH. Maliponia aquimaris gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from seawater. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2016; 66:2271-2277. 🇰🇷

IJSEM list: Oren A, Garrity GM. Notification list. Notification that new names and new combinations have appeared in volume 66, part 6 of the IJSEM. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2016; 66:3765-3767.

Nomenclatural status: validly published under the ICNP

Taxonomic status: synonym

Correct name: Antarctobacter Labrenz et al. 1998

  • Notes:
    • 🧕 Jung et al. (2016) assigned this genus to the family Rhodobacteraceae Garrity et al. 2006. Publication: Jung YT, Lee JS, Yoon JH. Maliponia aquimaris gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from seawater. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2016; 66:2271-2277. 🇰🇷
    • 🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Antarctobacter Labrenz et al. 1998. Publication: Xu X, Li X, Xue Q, Liu A. Phylogenomic insights support the merger of the genera Mameliella and Maliponia into the genus Antarctobacter. BMC Genomics 2025; 26:969. 🇨🇳
    • ❗ Maliponia 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: CECT: 1; KCTC: 1.
