Abstract
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.
