  • 🧍 Name validly published under the ICN although it appeared in a Validation List. Publication: Anonymous. Validation list no. 79. List of new names and new combinations previously effectively, but not validly, published. Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2001; 51:263-265.
  • 🧍 Regarded as not validly published. Name of species not validly published. Publication: Oren A, Arahal DR, Goker M, Moore ERB, Rossello-Mora R, Sutcliffe IC. International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes. Prokaryotic Code (2022 Revision). Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2023; 73:5585.
  • 🧍 Prochlorococcus marinus subsp. marinus Chisholm et al. 1992 appears in the September 2000 issue of the International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology. However this name was not in accordance with the rules of the ICNP because the genus name Prochlorococcus and the species name Prochlorococcus marinus were not validly published under the Bacteriological Code at that time. — Later, the subspecies Prochlorococcus marinus subsp. marinus was cited in the Validation List no. 79.
