• Emendations:
  • Zhi et al. 2009 Zhi XY, Li WJ, Stackebrandt E. An update of the structure and 16S rRNA gene sequence-based definition of higher ranks of the class Actinobacteria, with the proposal of two new suborders and four new families and emended descriptions of the existing higher taxa. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2009; 59:589-608. Euzeby JP. Notification list. Notification that new names and new combinations have appeared in volume 59, part 3 of the IJSEM. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2009; 59:1259-1261.
    Notes:
    • Emendation accompanied by the inclusion of 5 families in the suborder.
  • Yassin et al. 2011 Yassin AF, Hupfer H, Siering C, Klenk HP, Schumann P. Auritidibacter ignavus gen. nov., sp. nov., of the family Micrococcaceae isolated from an ear swab of a man with otitis externa, transfer of the members of the family Yaniellaceae Li et al. 2008 to the family Micrococcaceae and emended description of the suborder Micrococcineae. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2011; 61:223-230. Euzeby JP. Notification list. Notification that new names and new combinations have appeared in volume 61, part 2 of the IJSEM. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2011; 61:1014-1015.
    Notes:
    • Yassin et al. 2011, corrected the pattern of signature nucleotides that previously (Zhi et al. 2009) have been defined for the family Yaniellaceae. The new pattern (exept of position 196) corresponded to the pattern defined for the family Micrococcaceae by Zhi et al., (2009). This evidence clearly precludes the inclusion of the genus Yaniella in a separate family within the suborder Micrococcineae and confirm the incorporation of Yaniellaceae in the family Micrococcaceae.
