Notes:

• 1) Duplicate name. This name, above species rank, is duplicated within the NCBI classification a) due to its independent use within separate Codes of Nomenclature; b) its valid duplication at different ranks within a single Code (e.g. genus and subgenus); c) unresolved lineage placement; or d) as unresolved homonym within a single Code.
• 2) emend. (emendavit): Used when the alteration of the diagnostic characters or of the circumscription of a taxon modifies the nature of the taxon.
• 3) This taxonomic name has been effectively published but not validly published under the rules of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (Bacteriological Code).
