Li. Sly et E. Stackebrandt, Description of Skermanella parooensis gen. nov., sp. nov. to accommodate Conglomeromonas largomobilis subsp. parooensis following the transfer of Conglomeromonas largomobilis subsp. largomobilis to the genus Azospirillum, INT J SY B, 49, 1999, pp. 541-544
As a consequence of the transfer of the type species Conglomeromonas largom
obilis subsp. largomobilis to the genus Azospirillum, the name of the genus
Conglomeromonas must be changed in accordance with Rule 37a(1) of the Inte
rnational Code of Nomenclature of Bacteria. Consequently, it is proposed th
at the subspecies Conglomeromonas largomobilis subsp, parooensis be transfe
rred to the genus Skermanella gen, nov. as the type species Skermanella par
ooensis gen, nov., sp, nov. This taxon belongs to an isolated subline of de
scent in the Azospirillum branch of the alpha-Proteobacteria. The spelling
of the specific epithet of Azospirillum largomobile is corrected to Azospir
illum largimobile.
