Notes:
-
🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Halomonas Vreeland et al. 1980.
Publication:
Dobson SJ, Franzmann PD. Unification of the genera Deleya (Baumann et al. 1983), Halomonas (Vreeland et al. 1980), and Halovibrio (Fendrich 1988) and the species Paracoccus halodenitrificans (Robinson and Gibbons 1952) into a single genus, Halomonas, and placement of the genus Zymobacter in the family Halomonadaceae. Int. J. Syst. Bacteriol. 1996; 46:550-558. 🇦🇺
- 💁 Taxonomists who have recently focused on this group are the corresponding authors of Guzman et al. (2010), Qiu et al. (2021), De la Haba et al. (2025), Long 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.
- ❗ Vreelandella 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 BRCs most frequently used for deposits in this group are: DSM: 28; KCTC: 16; LMG: 13; ATCC: 11; JCM: 11; CGMCC: 10; CIP: 9; MCCC: 7; NBRC: 6; CECT: 6.
