🙄 This taxon name is occasionally misprinted (or affected by an OCR error) in some sources as: "Crenothricaceae"; "Crenothrichaceae"; "Cronothrichaceae".
🧍 Bowman (2014) assigned the type genus of this family to Methylococcaceae. However, as the name Crenotrichaceae was validly published before Methylococcaceae, this family name has priority over Methylococcaceae. Therefore, we provisionally assigned Crenotrichaceae only to the order Methylococcales.Publication:
