• Notes:
  • Nomenclatural type of the family Thermodesulforhabdaceae Waite et al. 2020. Publication: Waite DW, Chuvochina M, Pelikan C, Parks DH, Yilmaz P, Wagner M, Loy A, Naganuma T, Nakai R, Whitman WB, et al. Proposal to reclassify the proteobacterial classes Deltaproteobacteria and Oligoflexia, and the phylum Thermodesulfobacteria into four phyla reflecting major functional capabilities. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2020; 70:5972-6016.
  • Waite et al. (2020) assigned this genus to the family Thermodesulforhabdaceae Waite et al. 2020. Publication: Waite DW, Chuvochina M, Pelikan C, Parks DH, Yilmaz P, Wagner M, Loy A, Naganuma T, Nakai R, Whitman WB, et al. Proposal to reclassify the proteobacterial classes Deltaproteobacteria and Oligoflexia, and the phylum Thermodesulfobacteria into four phyla reflecting major functional capabilities.

  • This taxon name is occasionally misprinted in some sources as: "Thennodesulforhabdus".
  • The BRCs most frequently used for deposits in this group are: DSM: 2.
  • The Greek word rhabdos is in the feminine gender. So, according to Rule 65 (2), the generic name Thermodesulforhabdus is in the feminine gender. Publication: Euzeby JP, Boemare NE. The modern Latin word rhabdus belongs to the feminine gender, inducing necessary corrections according to Rules 65(2), 12c(1) and 13b of the Bacteriological Code (1990 Revision). Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2000; 50:1691-1692.
