Abstract

P. DasSarma & S. DasSarma [ (2008), 5] have proposed far-reaching changes in the nomenclature and taxonomy of the halophilic archaea of the order , family . While re-evaluation of the taxonomic classification of strains within the group is to be encouraged, the nomenclatural changes proposed are in violation of the General Considerations, Principles and Rules of the International Code of Nomenclature of Bacteria.
