Notes:
- According to Gelsomino et al. (2004), this species is a later heterotypic synonym of Arthrobacter nicotianae Giovannozzi-Sermanni 1959 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Gelsomino R, Vancanneyt M, Swings J. Reclassification of Brevibacterium liquefaciens Okabayashi and Masuo 1960 as Arthrobacter nicotianae Giovannozzi-Sermanni 1959. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2004; 54:615-616.
- According to Gelsomino et al. (2004), this species is a later heterotypic synonym of Glutamicibacter nicotianae (Giovannozzi-Sermanni 1959) Busse 2016.

- Brevibacterium liquefaciens is the correct name 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 Brevibacterium.
- The authors, therefore, withdraw all of theirs recommendations for the assignment of Brevibacterium liquefaciens to the genus Corynebacterium [2]. Publication: . Erratum. Int. J. Syst. Bacteriol. 1984; 34:274.
- The strain ATCC 14929 used by M.A. Lanéelle et al. [1] was mislabeled. With a new copy of the type strain ATCC 14929, the results were unlike those reported by M.A. Lanéelle et al. [1].

Breed (Approved Lists, 1980) as Corynebacterium vitarumen (Bechdel et al.) comb. nov. and Brevibacterium liquefaciens Okabayashi and Masuo (Approved Lists, 1980) as Corynebacterium liquefaciens (Okabayashi and Masuo) comb. nov.
