Family of Phototrophic Green Sulfur Bacteria: Copeland, the Correct Family Name; Rejection of Lauterborn; and the Taxonomic Situation of the Consortium-Forming Species Free

Abstract

The family of phototrophic green sulfur bacteria contains five genera: Nadson 1906, Lauterborn 1913, Geitler 1925, Czurda and Maresch 1937, and Gorlenko 1970. Of these, is the type genus, and the name of the family is Copeland 1956. The familial name Lauterborn 1913 is illegitimate. Furthermore, the applications of the names Lauterborn 1916 and Lauterborn 1916 are uncertain, and the Judicial Commission is requested to place these names in the list of rejected names. The taxonomic situation of the consortium-forming “symbiotic species” of the phototrophic green sulfur bacteria (, and ) is discussed.
