Notes:
🙋 This subspecies could be automatically created (rule 40d) by the valid publication of Desulfovibriovulgaris subsp. oxamicus Postgate and Campbell 1966 (Approved Lists 1980) but an explicit description was also provided.Publication:

❗ Desulfovibriovulgaris subsp. vulgaris is the correct name instead if this subspecies is regarded as a separate subspecies (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another subspecies whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority) within a separate species Desulfovibriovulgaris within a separate genus Desulfovibrio.

🧍 If an author accepts that Desulfovibrio vulgaris subsp. oxamicus Postgate and Campbell 1966 (Approved Lists 1980) is a new species [Desulfovibrio oxamicus (Postgate and Campbell 1966) López-Cortés et al. 2006, comb. nov.], then Desulfovibrio vulgaris subsp. vulgaris Postgate and Campbell 1966 (Approved Lists 1980) should thereafter be designated simply as Desulfovibrio vulgaris Postgate and Campbell 1966 (Approved Lists 1980).Publication:
