  • 🥇 Nomenclatural type of the order Nakamurellales Sen et al. 2014. Publication: Sen A, Daubin V, Abrouk D, Gifford I, Berry AM, Normand P. Phylogeny of the class Actinobacteria revisited in the light of complete genomes. The orders 'Frankiales' and Micrococcales should be split into coherent entities: proposal of Frankiales ord. nov., Geodermatophilales ord. nov., Acidothermales ord. nov. and Nakamurellales ord. nov.

  • 🧕 Sen et al. (2014) assigned this genus to the order Nakamurellales Sen et al. 2014. Publication: Sen A, Daubin V, Abrouk D, Gifford I, Berry AM, Normand P. Phylogeny of the class Actinobacteria revisited in the light of complete genomes. The orders 'Frankiales' and Micrococcales should be split into coherent entities: proposal of Frankiales ord. nov., Geodermatophilales ord. nov., Acidothermales ord. nov. and Nakamurellales ord. nov.

  • 🚋 The type species of this genus has alternatively been placed in the genus Microsphaera Yoshimi et al. 1996. Publication: Yoshimi Y, Hiraishi A, Nakamura K. Isolation and characterization of Microsphaera multipartita gen. nov., sp. nov., a polysaccharide-accumulating gram-positive bacterium from activated sludge. Int. J. Syst. Bacteriol. 1996; 46:519-525. 🇯🇵
  • 💁 Taxonomists who have recently focused on this group are the corresponding authors of An et al. (2022), Liu et al. (2019). 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: KCTC: 8; CGMCC: 6; DSM: 6; NBRC: 5; JCM: 3; CIP: 2; CECT: 1; CCTCC: 1; KACC: 1; LMG: 1.
  • 🧍 Replacement of the illegitimate name Microsphaera Yoshimi et al. 1996, which is illegitimate because of precedence of the fungal genus Microsphaera (Wallr.) Léveillé 1851 [Principle 2, Rule 51b(4)]. Consequently, a new genus designation Nakamurella has been proposed by Tao et al. 2004. In the etymology of the genus Nakamurella, provided by Tao et al. 2004, the first name of Prof. Nakamura is erroneously cited as Kazonuri. — Kudo T. Personal communication, 2006-08-17.
