Notes:
- ⏰ According to Love (1995), this species is an earlier heterotypic synonym of Bacteroides salivosus Love et al. 1987. Publication: Love DN. Porphyromonas macacae comb. nov., a consequence of Bacteroides macacae being a senior synonym of Porphyromonas salivosa. Int. J. Syst. Bacteriol. 1995; 45:90-92.
- ⏰ According to Love (1995), this species is an earlier heterotypic synonym of Porphyromonas salivosa (Love et al. 1987) Love et al. 1992. Publication: Love DN. Porphyromonas macacae comb. nov., a consequence of Bacteroides macacae being a senior synonym of Porphyromonas salivosa. Int. J. Syst. Bacteriol. 1995; 45:90-92.
- ❗ Bacteroides macacae is the correct name instead if this species is regarded as a separate species (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another species whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority) within a separate genus Bacteroides.
