Gender: masculine

Type strain: 4-1; CIP 107628; DSM 15084

16S rRNA gene: AJ504797 Analyse FASTA

Original publication: Gugliandolo C, Maugeri TL, Caccamo D, Stackebrandt E. Bacillus aeolius sp. nov. a novel thermophilic, halophilic marine Bacillus species from Eolian Islands (Italy). Syst Appl Microbiol 2003; 26:172-176.

IJSEM list: Euzeby JP. Validation list no. 94. List of new names and new combinations previously effectively, but not validly, published. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2003; 53:1701-1702.

Nomenclatural status: not validly published

Risk group: 1

Notes:
- The terminology used by the authors is in line with many other taxonomic studies and does not negatively affect their main results; some improvements may nevertheless be possible. Contrasting the term "chemotaxonomic" with "phenotypic" is not recommended. Whether taxa can have "members" is debatable. See the LPSN phylogeny page for details. Publication: Göker M. What can genome analysis offer for bacteria? In: Bridge P, Smith D, Stackebrandt E (eds), Trends in the systematics of bacteria and fungi, CAB International, Wallingford, 2021, p. 255-281.
- Regarded as not validly published. Based on phenotypic properties, 16S rRNA gene sequence and MALDI-TOF analysis, the strains DSM 15084 and CIP 107628, deposited as the type strain of Bacillus aeolius, do not represent the original type strain, strain 4-1. The two collections have attempted to obtain a subculture of the original strain from the depositor, but the strain is no longer available in the depositor's laboratory. It is therefore proposed that the Judicial Commission of the International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes places the name Bacillus aeolius on the list of "Epitheta specifica et subspecifica rejicienda" if a suitable replacement for the type strain or a neotype cannot be found within 2 years of publication of this Request. This request was adressed in Opinion 98, which didi not reject the name but declared the name Bacillus aeolius to not be validly published. Publication: Pukall R, Schumann P, Clermont D, Bizet C. Bacillus aeolius DSM 15084T (=CIP 107628T) is a strain of Bacillus licheniformis. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2008; 58:1268-1270.
