The appearance of a name on this list does not constitute valid publication of that name. For lists of validly published names, including names published since this list was generated, and information on authorities of names etc., users should consult Jean Euzeby's List of Bacterial Names with Standing in Nomenclature (http://www.bacterio.cict.fr/index.html). Validly published names of genera and higher rank are linked to the relevant page on this site.
This list is based in part on Bergey's Manual of Systematic Bacteriology, 2nd edition (Springer, New York).
