• Notes:
  • 🥇 Nomenclatural type of the genus Weizmannia Gupta et al. 2020. Publication: Gupta RS, Patel S, Saini N, Chen S. Robust demarcation of 17 distinct Bacillus species clades, proposed as novel Bacillaceae genera, by phylogenomics and comparative genomic analyses: description of Robertmurraya kyonggiensis sp. nov. and proposal for an emended genus Bacillus limiting it only to the members of the Subtilis and Cereus clades of species.

  • 😩 Deposits incorrectly indicated in some sources as representing the type strain of this taxon: NCAIM B.01086; VKM B-731.
  • ❗ Weizmannia coagulans 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 Weizmannia.
  • 😷 The taxon name shown here has no risk group assigned, but is the homotypic synonym of Bacillus coagulans Hammer 1915 (Approved Lists 1980), which has a risk group (Swiss Confederation) above 1. This may require that the name shown here is not treated as the correct name for practical purposes.
  • 🎓 Name mentioned 31 times in PubMed until 2024-03-27.
