Notes:
-
🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Sediminibacterium Qu and Yuan 2008.
Publication:

- ❗ Vibrionimonas 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).
