Abstract
As a consequence of the transfer of the type species Conglomeromonas largomobilis subsp. largomobilis to the genus Azospirillum, the name of the genus Conglomeromonas must be changed in accordance with Rule 37a(1) of the International Code of Nomenclature of Bacteria. Consequently, it is proposed that the subspecies Conglomeromonas largomobilis subsp. parooensis be transferred to the genus Skermanella gen. nov. as the type species Skermanella parooensis gen. nov., sp. nov. This taxon belongs to an isolated subline of descent in the Azospirillum branch of the α-Proteobacteria. The spelling of the specific epithet of Azospirillum largomobile is corrected to Azospirillum largimobile.
