IJSEM list: Skerman VBD, McGowan V, Sneath PHA. Approved lists of bacterial names. Int J Syst Bacteriol 1980; 30:225-420.

Nomenclatural status: validly published under the ICNP

Taxonomic status: synonym

Correct name: Ligilactobacillus salivarius (Rogosa et al. 1953) Zheng et al. 2020

Risk group: 1

Synonyms:

Name	Kind
Ligilactobacillus salivarius (Rogosa et al. 1953) Zheng et al. 2020	homotypic synonym, validly published under the ICNP
Lactobacillus salivarius subsp. salicinius Rogosa et al. 1953 (Approved Lists 1980)	heterotypic synonym, validly published under the ICNP, distinct rank

Emendations:
- Li et al. 2006 Li Y, Raftis E, Canchaya C, Fitzgerald GF, van Sinderen D, O'Toole PW. Polyphasic analysis indicates that Lactobacillus salivarius subsp. salivarius and Lactobacillus salivarius subsp. salicinius do not merit separate subspecies status. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2006; 56:2397-2403. Euzeby JP. Notification list. Notification that new names and new combinations have appeared in volume 56, part 10 of the IJSEM. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2007; 57:2-3.
  Notes:
  - Emendation accompanied by a proposal regarding the synonymy of the species.
  - Li et al. 2006 propose that the infraspecific division of Lactobacillus salivarius into the subspecies Lactobacillus salivarius subsp. salicinius Rogosa et al. 1953 (Approved Lists 1980), and Lactobacillus salivarius subsp. salivarius Rogosa et al. 1953 (Approved Lists 1980) be discontinued.

Notes:
- Deposit incorrectly indicated in some sources as representing the type strain of this taxon: ATCC 11741.
- Lactobacillus salivarius is the correct name 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 Lactobacillus.
