Register list for 7 new names including Azoamicales ord. nov.

Submitted by Speth, Daan

Order Azoamicales

Etymology: [A.zo.a.mi.ca'les] N.L. masc. n. Azoamicus, referring to the type genus Azoamicus; -ales, ending to denote an order; N.L. fem. pl. n. Azoamicales, the Azoamicus order
Nomenclatural type: Genus Azoamicus
Description: ’Candidatus Azoamicales’ (A.zo.a.mi.ca.les. N.L. masc. n. Azoamicus. type genus of the order; N.L. suff. –ales to denote an order; N.L. masc. pl. n. Azoamicales, the order of the genus Azoamicus). A bacterial order identified by metagenomic analyses and delineated according to Relative Evolutionary Distance by the Genome Taxonomy Database (GTDB). Phylogenetic analyses in this work have shown that the previously published ‘Candidatus Azoamicus ciliaticola’ is assigned to an uncharacterized order with provisional designation UBA6186. Consequently, we propose to rename the UBA6186 order to ‘Candidatus Azoamicales’. the type genus of the order is ‘Candidatus Azoamicus’. The order is assigned to the class Gammaproteobacteria.
Classification: Bacteria » Pseudomonadota » Gammaproteobacteria » Azoamicales

Etymology: [A.zo.a.mi.ca'ce.ae] N.L. masc. n. Azoamicus, referring to the type genus Azoamicus; -aceae, ending to denote a family; N.L. fem. pl. n. Azoamicaceae, the Azoamicus family
Nomenclatural type: Genus Azoamicus
Description: The description of the family ‘Candidatus Azoamicaceae’ is the same as that of the genus ‘Candidatus Azoamicus’. The type genus is ‘Candidatus Azoamicus’.
