Notes:
-
🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Algibacter Nedashkovskaya et al. 2004.
Publication:
Park SC, Hwang YM, Choe HN, Baik KS, Kim H, Seong CN. Algibacter aquimarinus sp. nov., isolated from a marine environment, and reclassification of Pontirhabdus pectinivorans as Algibacter pectinivorans comb. nov. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2013; 63:2038-2042.
- 💁 Taxonomists who have recently focused on this group are the corresponding authors of Park et al. (2013). Editors in search of reviewers are advised to consider additional criteria such as whether a taxon is covered by one of the ICSP subcommittees.
- ❗ Pontirhabdus 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 phylogenomic assignment score of this taxon is 0.04904 (N = 4).
- 🎰 The BRCs most frequently used for deposits in this group are: JCM: 1; KACC: 1; DSM: 1.
