Notes:
- ⏲ According to Komaki (2021), this species is a later heterotypic synonym of Streptomyces rochei Berger et al. 1953 (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 vinaceusdrappus 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.
