  • Notes:
    • ⏲ According to Yabuuchi et al. (1979), this species is a later heterotypic synonym of Sphingomonas paucimobilis (Holmes et al. 1977) Yabuuchi et al. 1990 but this is in conflict with the rules of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes. Publication: Yabuuchi E, Tanimura E, Ohyama A, Yano I, Yamamoto A. Flavobacterium devorans ATCC 10829: A strain of Pseudomonas paucimobilis. J. Gen. Appl. Microbiol. 1979; 25:95-107.
