Notes:
The authority of the taxon name (Loginova and Egorova) deliberately differs from the authors of the publication (Loginova et al.).
According to Ludwig et al. (2021), this "species affiliates with the Firmicutes, and is a true member of Anoxybacillus and needs revision".Publication:
Ludwig W, Viver T, Westram R, Francisco Gago J, Bustos-Caparros E, Knittel K, Amann R, Rossello-Mora R. Release LTP_12_2020, featuring a new ARB alignment and improved 16S rRNA tree for prokaryotic type strains. Syst Appl Microbiol 2021; 44:126218.
Yarza et al. (2013) expected for accession HF558369, originating from the alleged type-strain deposit CCUG 22402, an affiliation with Flavobacteriaceae (Flavobacteria) but observed an affiliation with Bacillales (Firmicutes) and 99.7% similarity against Anoxybacillus kamchatkensis.Publication:

The 16S rRNA gene sequence of the type strain shows an unexpected affiliation with the order Bacillales (99.7% similarity against Anoxybacillus kamchatkensis).Publication:
