• Notes:
  • ⏲ According to Patel et al. (2024), this species is not a later heterotypic synonym of Saccharococcus thermophilus Nystrand 1984. Publication: Patel I, Bello S, Gupta RS. Phylogenomic and molecular marker based studies to clarify the evolutionary relationships amongst Anoxybacillus species and demarcation of the family Anoxybacillaceae and some of its constituent genera. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2024; 74:6528.
  • 🏢 Synonymy of this taxon was mentioned in an IJSEM list. Publication: Oren A, Göker M. Notification list. Notification that new names and new combinations have appeared in volume 74, part 9 of the IJSEM. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2024; 74:6556.
  • 😢 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. The expression "monophyletic clade" is a pleonasm. The phrase "validly described" is misleading. See the LPSN phylogeny page for details. Publication: Göker M. What can genome analysis offer for bacteria? In: Bridge P, Smith D, Stackebrandt E (eds), Trends in the systematics of bacteria and fungi, CAB International, Wallingford, 2021, p. 255-281.
