Notes:
- ❗ Streptomyces mordarskii 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 Streptomyces.
- 😷 The risk group for Germany has been imported on 2026-08-13. The full classification is: risk group = 1. — 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.
- 🎓 Name mentioned 2 times in PubMed until 2026-06-11.
- 🪓 Organisms assigned to this species have previously been classified as Streptomyces violaceusniger corrig. (Waksman and Curtis 1916) Pridham et al. 1958 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Pridham TG, Hesseltine CW, Benedict RG. A guide for the classification of streptomycetes according to selected groups; placement of strains in morphological sections. Appl Microbiol 1958; 6:52-79. Skerman VBD, McGowan V, Sneath PHA. Approved lists of bacterial names. Int J Syst Bacteriol 1980; 30:225-420.
- 🙅 This name is on the List of Recommended Names for bacteria of medical importance (LoRN) as a synonym of the name to be applied to this species. The name is on LoRN because of the recorded risk group of the genus.

Parent taxon: Streptomyces Waksman and Henrici 1943 (Approved Lists 1980)
