  • This taxon name is occasionally misprinted in some sources as: "Corynebacterinae".
  • The taxonomic category of this name is not currently in use in the LPSN hierarchy. For this reason, this name does not have a parent taxon and does not have child taxa.
  • Irregularly formed name. The expected name to be formed from Corynebacterium would be "Corynebacteriineae". Publication: Parker CT, Tindall BJ, Garrity GM. International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2019; 69:S1-S111.
