    Notes:
    • Emendation accompanied by the proposal of 1 new species in the genus.

• Notes:
  • For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Micromonospora Ørskov 1923 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Nouioui I, Carro L, Garcia-Lopez M, Meier-Kolthoff JP, Woyke T, Kyrpides NC, Pukall R, Klenk HP, Goodfellow M, Goker M. Genome-Based Taxonomic Classification of the Phylum Actinobacteria. Front Microbiol 2018; 9:2007.
  • 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. Using the term "phylogenetic data" (or equivalent) for sequence data is not advocated. 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.
  • Verrucosispora is the correct name 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 correct etymology is L. adj. verrucosus a um, warty; Gr. n. spora, a seed; N.L. fem. n. Verrucosispora, an organism with warty spores. Not L. n. verruca, wart as cited in the paper by Rheims et al. 1998. Publication: Euzeby JP. List of Bacterial Names with Standing in Nomenclature: a folder available on the Internet.
