- 🙄 This taxon name is occasionally misprinted (or affected by an OCR error) in some sources as: "Parahaliglobus".
- 😢 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. Names but not taxa can be validly published. Whether taxa can have "members" is debatable. 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. 🇬🇧
- 🎰 The BRCs most frequently used for deposits in this group are: NBRC: 1; KCTC: 1; DSM: 1.
