• Notes:
  • For the type species of this genus another name is in use, which is affiliated with the genus Mycobacterium Lehmann and Neumann 1896 (Approved Lists 1980). Publication: Da Costa Cruz JC. Mycobacterium fortuitum um novo bacillo acidoresistance pathogenico para o homen. Acta Medica (Rio de Janeiro) 1938; 1:297-301.
  • This taxon name is occasionally used in plural form as: "Mycolicibacteria".
  • Taxonomists who have recently focused on this group are the corresponding authors of Dahl et al. (2021), Shahraki et al. (2015), Schinsky et al. (2004), Adekambi et al. (2006), Shojaei et al. (2000). Editors in search of reviewers are advised to consider additional criteria such as whether a taxon is covered by one of the ICSP subcommittees.
  • Mycolicibacterium is the correct name 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: DSM: 88; JCM: 81; ATCC: 56; CCUG: 42; NCTC: 21; NRRL: 9; LMG: 6; KCTC: 6; CGMCC: 5; IFO: 4.
  • Medical researchers opposed the dissection of the genus Mycobacterium into several genera.
