  • 🚃 The type genus of this order has alternatively been placed in the order Caryophanales Peshkoff 1939 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Tindall BJ. When treated as heterotypic synonyms the names Caryophanaceae Peshkoff 1939 (Approved Lists 1980) and Caryophanales Peshkoff 1939 (Approved Lists 1980) have priority over the names Planococcaceae Krasil'nikov 1949 (Approved Lists 1980) and Bacillales Prevot 1953 (Approved Lists 1980) and Bacillales Prevot 1953 (Approved Lists 1980), respectively.

  • ❗ Thermicanales 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).
