    • ❗ Streptomyces fervens 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 Streptomyces.
    • 😷 The risk group for Canada has been imported on 2024-02-27. The full classification is: risk group = 1, note = "Security sensitive biological agent: No - Terrestrial animal pathogen under Canadian Food Inspection Agency authority: No". — The risk group for Swiss Confederation has been imported on 2024-02-01. 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 1 time in PubMed until 2026-06-11.
    • 🙅 This name is on the List of Recommended Names for bacteria of medical importance (LoRN) as a synonym of the name to be applied to this species. The name is on LoRN because of the recorded risk group of the genus.
    • 🧍 In violation of Rule 33c, on the Validation List no. 38, Streptomyces fervens is proposed as a nomen revictum (basonym: "Streptomyces fervens" DeBoer et al. 1960). Publication: Anonymous. Validation list no. 58. Validation of publication of new names and new combinations previously effectively published outside the IJSB. Int J Syst Bacteriol 1996; 46:836-837.
    • 🧍 Witt and Stackebrandt proposed to transfer Streptoverticillium fervens (de Boer et al. 1960) Locci et al. 1969 (Approved Lists 1980) to the genus. However, the Validation Lists no. 38 does not include formal propositions about Streptoverticillium fervens subsp. fervens Baldacci and Locci 1974 (Approved Lists 1980) and Streptoverticillium fervens subsp. melrosporus Mason et al. 1965 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Locci R, Baldacci E, Petrolini Baldan B. The genus Streptoverticillium. A taxonomic study. Giornale di Microbiologia 1969; 17:1-60.
