  • ❗ Halobacterium piscisalsi 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 Halobacterium.
  • 😷 The risk group for Germany has been imported on 2023-10-29. The full classification is: risk group = 1. — 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 2 times in PubMed until 2024-03-28.
  • 🧍 According to H. Minegishi and A. Echigo Halobacterium piscisalsi JCM 14661T shares high 16S rRNA gene similarity and high DNA–DNA relatedness with Halobacterium salinarum. The "Subcommittee on the taxonomy of Halobacteriaceae and Subcommittee on the taxonomy of Halomonadaceae" recommended to also obtain cultures of the type strain of Halobacterium piscisalsi from other culture collections (BCC 24372, PCU 302).

  • 🧍 If these cultures are identical to JCM 14661T, a taxonomic note should be published proposing Halobacterium piscisalsi as a later synonym of Halobacterium salinarum. This taxonomic note was submitted to IJSEM on November 04, 2011 (see Arahal et al. 2011, and Minegishi et al.). Publication: Arahal DR, Oren A, Ventosa A.
