Notes:
- 😩 Deposits incorrectly indicated in some sources as representing the type strain of this taxon: JCM 13646; JCM 14646.
- ❗ Prevotella copri is the correct name instead if this species is regarded as a separate species (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another species whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority) within a separate genus Prevotella.
- 😷 The risk group for Germany has been imported on 2023-10-29. The full classification is: risk group = 1.
- 🎓 Name mentioned 321 times in PubMed until 2024-03-27.
- 🧍 The phylogenetic position of this species was determined in a genome-scale analysis by García-López et al. (2019). Publication: Garcia-Lopez M, Meier-Kolthoff JP, Tindall BJ, Gronow S, Woyke T, Kyrpides NC, Hahnke RL, Goker M.
