🛺 The type genus of this family has been placed in the family Pseudonocardiaceae Embley et al. 1989.Publication:
Embley MT, Smida J, Stackebrandt E. The phylogeny of mycolate-less wall chemotype IV Actinomycetes and description of Pseudonocardiaceae fam. nov. Syst. Appl. Microbiol. 1988; 11:44-52.
❗ Actinopolysporaceae is the correct name instead if this family is regarded as a separate family (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another family whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority).
