  • Notes:
    • ⏲ According to Komaki (2021), this species is a later heterotypic synonym of Streptomyces althioticus Yamaguchi et al. 1957 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Komaki H. Reclassification of 15 Streptomyces species as synonyms of Streptomyces albogriseolus, Streptomyces althioticus, Streptomyces anthocyanicus, Streptomyces calvus, Streptomyces griseoincarnatus, Streptomyces mutabilis, Streptomyces pilosus or Streptomyces rochei. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2019; 71:0. 🇯🇵
    • 🏢 Synonymy of this taxon was mentioned in an IJSEM list. Publication: Oren A, Garrity GM. Notification list. Notification that new names and new combinations have appeared in volume 71, part 3 of the IJSEM. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2021; 71:4812.
    • ❗ Streptomyces matensis 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 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. — The risk group for Germany has been imported on 2026-08-13. 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 13 times 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.
