• Notes:
  • 🥇 Nomenclatural type of the genus "Hankyongella" Siddiqi and Im 2020. Publication: Siddiqi MZ, Im WT. Hankyongella ginsenosidimutans gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from mineral water with ginsenoside coverting activity. Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek 2020; 113:719-727.
  • 😢 The terminology used by the authors is in line with many other taxonomic studies and does not negatively affect their main results; some improvements may nevertheless be possible. Contrasting the term "chemotaxonomic" with "phenotypic" is not recommended. Whether taxa can have "members" is debatable. See the LPSN phylogeny page for details. Publication: Göker M.
