The morphological and physiological characteristics, including photomicrographs of a stained preparation of Rhodes’ proposed neotype strain 28/5 (ATCC 13525, NCTC 10038, CCEB 546, RH 818) are reviewed. This strain is compared with Lysenko’s proposed neotype strain of P. fluoresce ns and the neotype strain of P. aeruginosa (Schroeter) Migula 1 900. The authors support the strain recommendation of Rhodes and request an Opinion on this proposal by the Judicial Commission of the International Committee on Bacteriological Nomenclature. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/0096266X-14-4-145
