The generic name Lactobacillus Beijerinck 1901 is conserved against Saccharobacillus van Laer 1892 and all earlier objective synonyms. The type species is L. delbrueckii Beijerinck with neotype strain ATCC 9649 = NCDO 213. Although L. delbrueckii was used by Beijerinck as a simplified version of the subspecific name “Lactobacillus fermentum var. delbrucki,” it shall be held to be validly published by Beijerinck as a species name. The name Lactobacillus caucasicus Beijerinck 1901 is placed in the list of rejected names, and L. caucasicus ceases to be the type species of Lactobacillus Beijerinck.
