Notes:
- 😷 The risk group for Germany has been imported on 2026-08-13. The full classification is: risk group = 1. — If in doubt, use the risk group given in the regulations for your country and, if these are not available, use the risk group given in the catalogue of the culture collection from which you have obtained or intend to obtain the strain.
- 🎓 Name mentioned 3 times in PubMed until 2026-06-11.
- 🙆 This name is on the List of Recommended Names for bacteria of medical importance (LoRN) as the name to be applied to this species. The name is on LoRN because of the recorded risk group of the genus.
- 🧍 Until November 2007 the strain KCTC 9992 has been erroneously listed as type strain of Actinomadura hallensis. — Leibniz Institute DSMZ. Prokaryotic Nomenclature Up-to-date, 2018-12-11.
- 🧍 The type strain KCTC 9992 is cited in the paper by Lee and Jeong 2006. However, this strain is also cited as the type strain of Nocardioides dubius Yoon et al. 2005. According to Dr. T. Kudo (JCM) and to Dr. J.-S. Lee (KCTC), the type strain of Actinomadura hallensis has not been deposited in KCTC. Therefore, KCTC 9992 is deleted from Actinomadura hallensis. — Kudo T. Personal communication, 2007-11-14.
