Emendations:
- Yoon et al. 2005 Yoon JH, Lee MH, Oh TK, Park YH. Muricauda flavescens sp. nov. and Muricauda aquimarina sp. nov., isolated from a salt lake near Hwajinpo Beach of the East Sea in Korea, and emended description of the genus Muricauda.

  Notes:
  - Emendation accompanied by the proposal of 2 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. The usage of the term "coherent taxon" (or equivalent) is cautioned against. Using the term "phylogenetic data" (or equivalent) for sequence data is not advocated. See the LPSN phylogeny page for details.

  Notes:
  - Emendation accompanied by the proposal of 1 new species in the genus.
- Liang et al. 2021 Liang J, Yin Q, Zheng X, Wang Y, Song ZM, Zhang Y, Hao L, Xu Y. Muricauda onchidii sp. nov., isolated from a marine invertebrate from South China Sea, and transfers of Flagellimonas algicola, Flagellimonas pacifica and Flagellimonas maritima to Muricauda algicola comb. nov., Muricauda parva nom. nov. and Muricauda aurantiaca nom. nov., respectively, and emended description of the genus Muricauda. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2021; 71:4982.
  Notes:
  - Emendation accompanied by the proposal of 4 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.

Notes:
- This taxon name is occasionally misprinted in some sources as: "Muricouda".
- Taxonomists who have recently focused on this group are the corresponding authors of Wang et al. (2017), Kim et al. (2020), Li et al. (2019), Yoon et al. (2008). 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 phylogenomic assignment score of this taxon is 0.03675 (N = 4).
