homotypic synonym, not validly published, basonym of name in Approved Lists
Notes:
❗ Erwiniacypripedii 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 Erwinia.
😷 The risk group for Swiss Confederation has been imported on 2024-02-01. The full classification is: risk group = 2, note = "PP". — The risk group for Germany has been imported on 2026-08-13. The full classification is: risk group = 1, note = "p". — If in doubt, use the risk group given in the regulations for your country and, if these are not available, use the risk group given in the catalogue of the culture collection from which you have obtained or intend to obtain the strain.
🎓 Name mentioned 7 times in PubMed until 2026-06-11.
🙅 This name is on the List of Recommended Names for bacteria of medical importance (LoRN) as a synonym of the name to be applied to this species. The name is on LoRN because of the recorded risk group of the species itself.

🧍 Erwinia cypripedii (Hori 1911) Bergey et al. 1923 (Approved Lists 1980) and Pectobacterium cypripedii (Hori 1911) Brenner et al. 1973 (Approved Lists 1980) have the same type strain and therefore are homotypic synonyms [Rules 24a and 24b (1)]. — The species of the genus Erwinia Winslow et al. 1920 (Approved Lists 1980) may be divided into three phylogenetic groups according to the results of 16S rDNA sequences. Hauben et al. 1999 propose (1) to restrict the genus Erwinia to the species of cluster I; (2) to transfer the species of cluster III into the new genus Brenneria Hauben et al. 1999; (3) to unite the species of cluster II, Erwinia carotovora subsp. atroseptica, Erwinia carotovora subsp. betavasculorum, Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora, Erwinia carotovora subsp. odorifera, Erwinia carotovora subsp. wasabiae, Erwinia cacticida, Erwinia chrysanthemi and Erwinia cypripedii in the genus Pectobacterium Waldee 1945 (Approved Lists 1980); (4) to emend Pectobacterium cypripedii [Pectobacterium cypripedii (Hori 1911) Brenner et al. 1973 (Approved Lists 1980) emend. Hauben et al. 1998]. So, Erwinia cypripedii is to be considered as an authentic species of the genus Pectobacterium.Publication:
