Based on nomenclatural priority of the genus Aliiroseovarius , it is proposed to reclassify Pseudoroseovarius crassostreae as a later homotypic synonym of Aliiroseovarius crassostreae , Pseudoroseovarius halocynthiae as a later homotypic synonym of Aliiroseovarius halocynthiae , Pseudoroseovarius sediminilitoris as a later homotypic synonym of Aliiroseovarius sediminilitoris and Pseudoroseovarius zhejiangensis as Aliiroseovarius zhejiangensis comb. nov. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijsem.0.001452
