• Notes:
  • ❗ Staphylococcus sciuri subsp. rodentium 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 sciuri within a separate genus Staphylococcus.

  • 🧍 Švec et al. (2016) reject the subspeciation of Staphylococcus sciuri into Staphylococcus sciuri subsp. sciuri, Staphylococcus sciuri subsp. carnaticus and Staphylococcus sciuri subsp. rodentium and propose their reclassification as Staphylococcus sciuri with type strain W.E. Kloos SC 116=ATCC 29062=BCRC 12927=CCM 3473=CCUG 15598=CNCTC 5683=DSM 20345=JCM 2425=NCTC 12103. However, as these authors are not proposing to reclassify Staphylococcus sciuri subsp. lentus the name Staphylococcus sciuri subsp. sciuri must be retained.
