During the course of quality control studies of the collection of the NITE Biological Resource Center (NBRC), phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences of actinomycetes revealed that Streptomyces flavidofuscus NBRC 15404T formed a cluster with Nocardiopsis dassonvillei and Nocardiopsis synnemataformans. Strain NBRC 15404T contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as a cell-wall diamino acid and DNA–DNA hybridization studies also showed that S. flavidofuscus NBRC 15404T was a close relative of N. dassonvillei subsp. dassonvillei NBRC 14626T. Based on chemotaxonomic, phenotypic and genetic analysis of the type strain, Streptomyces flavidofuscus should be reclassified as a later heterotypic synonym of Nocardiopsis dassonvillei subsp. dassonvillei.
