  • The type genus of this order has alternatively been placed in the order "Peritrichinales" Orla-Jensen 1921. Publication: Orla-Jensen S. The Main Lines of the Natural Bacterial System. J Bacteriol 1921; 6:263-273.
  • This taxon name is occasionally misprinted in some sources as: "Closlridiales"; "Clostrfrliales"; "Clostriales".
  • Clostridiales is the correct name instead if this order is regarded as a separate order (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another order whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority).
