🧍 On the basis of the paper of Kim et al. 2017 (Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2017; 67:3882-3887), the name of the subspecies can be used again.Publication:

🧍 If an author accepts the elevation of Mycobacterium chelonae subsp. abscessus (Moore and Frerichs 1953) Kubica et al. 1972 (Approved Lists 1980) to full species status, then Mycobacterium chelonae subsp. chelonae (Bergey et al. 1923) Kubica et al. 1972 (Approved Lists 1980) should thereafter be designated simply as Mycobacterium chelonae Bergey et al. 1923 (Approved Lists 1980).Publication:
