🙋 This subspecies could be automatically created (rule 40d) by the valid publication of Kocuria marina subsp. indica (Dastager et al. 2014) Ghodhbane-Gtari et al. 2024 but an explicit description was also provided.

- ❗ Kocuria marina subsp. marina 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 Kocuria marina within a separate genus Kocuria.
- 🙆 This name is on the List of Recommended Names for bacteria of medical importance (LoRN) as the name to be applied to this subspecies. The name is on LoRN because of the recorded pathogenicity of the species itself.
