• Notes:
  • 🙋 This subspecies could be automatically created (rule 40d) by the valid publication of Staphylococcus petrasii subsp. croceilyticus Pantůček et al. 2013 but an explicit description was also provided. Publication: Pantucek R, Svec P, Dajcs JJ, Machova I, Cernohlavkova J, Sedo O, Gelbicova T, Maslanova I, Doskar J, Zdrahal Z, et al. Staphylococcus petrasii sp. nov. including S. petrasii subsp. petrasii subsp. nov. and S. petrasii subsp. croceilyticus subsp. nov., isolated from human clinical specimens and human ear infections.

  • ❗ Staphylococcus petrasii subsp. petrasii 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 Staphylococcus petrasii within a separate genus Staphylococcus.
  • 😷 The risk group for Germany has been imported on 2026-08-13. The full classification is: risk group = 2. — If in doubt, use the risk group given in the regulations for your country and, if these are not available, use the risk group given in the catalogue of the culture collection from which you have obtained or intend to obtain the strain.
  • 🙆 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 risk group of the species itself.
