The status of the species Leifsonia rubra Reddy et al. 2003. Request for an Opinion
Abstract
On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, it is ascertained that the type strain of Leifsonia rubra does not exist in any established culture collection or with the authors who described this species. Therefore, it cannot be included in any scientific study. It is proposed that the Judicial Commission place the name Leifsonia rubra on the list of rejected names if a suitable type strain is not found or a neotype is not proposed within two years following the publication of this Request for an Opinion.
