Notes:

• 1) Square brackets ([ ]) around a genus indicates that the name awaits appropriate action by the research community to be transferred to another genus.
• 2) This taxonomic name has been effectively published but not validly published under the rules of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (Bacteriological Code).
