  • 🛺 The type genus of this family has been placed in the family Bacillaceae Fischer 1895 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Xue Y, Zhang X, Zhou C, Zhao Y, Cowan DA, Heaphy S, Grant WD, Jones BE, Ventosa A, Ma Y.

  • 🚋 The type genus of this family has alternatively been placed in the family Bacillaceae Fischer 1895 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Zhao W, Weber C, Zhang CL, Romanek CS, King GM, Mills G, Sokolova T, Wiegel J.
