• Notes:
  • 🧕 Yilmaz et al. (2014) assigned this genus to the family Enterobacteriaceae Rahn 1937 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Yilmaz P, Parfrey LW, Yarza P, Gerken J, Pruesse E, Quast C, Schweer T, Peplies J, Ludwig W, Glöckner FO. The SILVA and “all-species living tree project (LTP)” taxonomic frameworks. Nucleic Acids Research 2014; 42(D1):D643-D648.
  • 🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Proteus Hauser 1885 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Cosenza BJ, Podgwaite JD. A new species of Proteus isolated from larvae of the gypsy moth Porthetria dispar (L.). Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek 1966; 32:187-191.
  • ❗ Cosenzaea is the correct name instead if this genus is regarded as a separate genus (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another genus whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority).
  • 🎰 The BRCs most frequently used for deposits in this group are: BCRC: 1; CCUG: 1; CCRC: 1; LMG: 1; NCIMB: 1; ATCC: 1; DSM: 1; CIP: 1; JCM: 1.
