Euzeby JP. Notification list. Notification that new names and new combinations have appeared in volume 60, part 12 of the IJSEM. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2011; 61:477-478. Notes:
🫂 Emendation accompanied by 2 proposals regarding the synonymy of the species.
😢 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. Using the term "phylogenetic data" (or equivalent) for sequence data is not advocated. Whether taxa can have "members" is debatable. See the LPSN phylogeny page for details.
