• Notes:
  • 🧕 Boone et al. (2001) assigned this genus to the family Bifidobacteriaceae Stackebrandt et al. 1997. Publication: Garrity GM, Holt JG. The Road Map to the Manual. In: Boone DR, Castenholz RW, Garrity GM (eds), Bergey's Manual of Systematic Bacteriology, second edition, vol. 1 (The Archaea and the deeply branching and phototrophic Bacteria), Springer-Verlag, New York, 2001, p. 119-166.
  • 🚂 For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Mobiluncus Spiegel and Roberts 1984. Publication: Spiegel CA, Roberts M. Mobiluncus gen. nov., Mobiluncus curtisii subsp. curtisii sp. nov., Mobiluncus curtisii subsp. holmesii subsp. nov., and Mobiluncus mulieris sp. nov., curved rods from the human vagina. Int. J. Syst. Bacteriol. 1984; 34:177-184.
  • ❗ Falcivibrio 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: ATCC: 2; DSM: 2; NCTC: 2; LMG: 2; CCUG: 1.
  • 🧍 Pittman et al. (1991) suggested the abbreviation "FLVB" for this genus name but this does not appear to be of practical relevance any longer. Publication: Pittman KF, Walczak CA, Lock CM. Codes and abbreviations for approved of effectively published names of genera of bacteria published from January 1980 to December 1990. Int J Syst Bacteriol 1991; 41:571-579.
