  • Notes:
    • ⏰ According to Kämpfer et al. (2020), this species is an earlier heterotypic synonym of Flavobacterium spartansii Loch and Faisal 2014. Publication: Kampfer P, Irgang R, Glaeser SP, Busse HJ, Criscuolo A, Clermont D, Avendano-Herrera R. Flavobacterium salmonis sp. nov. isolated from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and formal proposal to reclassify Flavobacterium spartansii as a later heterotypic synonym of Flavobacterium tructae.
