Notes:
- Moraxella phenylpyruvica 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 Moraxella.
- Conserved epithet (Judicial Opinion 42). Only conservation of an epithet, and over all earlier homotypic synonyms. Publication: Judicial Commission. Judicial Opinion No. 42. Int J Syst Bacteriol 1971; 21:107.
