• Notes:
  • 🧕 Cui et al. (2023) assigned this genus to the family Natrialbaceae Gupta et al. 2015. Publication: Cui C, Han D, Hou J, Cui HL. Genome-based classification of the class Halobacteria and description of Haladaptataceae fam. nov. and Halorubellaceae fam. nov. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2023; 73:5984.
  • 🧔 This taxon was discussed in a meeting of a Taxonomic Subcommittee of the ICSP. Publication: Oren A, Ventosa A. International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes Subcommittee on the taxonomy of Halobacteriaceae and subcommittee on the taxonomy of Halomonadaceae. Minutes of the joint open meeting, 23 May 2016, San Juan, Puerto Rico. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2016; 66:4291-4295.
  • 😢 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. Publication: Göker M. What can genome analysis offer for bacteria? In: Bridge P, Smith D, Stackebrandt E (eds), Trends in the systematics of bacteria and fungi, CAB International, Wallingford, 2021, p. 255-281.
