• Emendations:
  • Jean et al. 2006 Jean WD, Shieh WY, Liu TY. Thalassomonas agarivorans sp. nov., a marine agarolytic bacterium isolated from shallow coastal water of An-Ping Harbour, Taiwan, and emended description of the genus Thalassomonas. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2006; 56:1245-1250. Euzeby JP. Notification list. Notification that new names and new combinations have appeared in volume 56, part 6 of the IJSEM. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2006; 56:2029-2030.
    Notes:
    • Emendation accompanied by the proposal of 1 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:
    • Emendation accompanied by the removal of 4 species from the genus.

• Notes:
  • This taxon name is occasionally misprinted in some sources as: "Thallassomonas".
  • Taxonomists who have recently focused on this group are the corresponding authors of Jung et al. (2014). Editors in search of reviewers are advised to consider additional criteria such as whether a taxon is covered by one of the ICSP subcommittees.
