However, these rules are not always followed. In the case of the name Caryophanaceae Peshkoff 1939 (Approved Lists 1980), when its nomenclatural type Caryophanon Peshkoff 1939 (Approved Lists 1980) is placed in the same taxon as Planococcus Migula 1894 (Approved Lists 1980), the nomenclatural type of Planococcaceae Krasil'nikov 1949 (Approved Lists 1980), then the two are considered to be heterotypic synonyms and the name which has priority is Caryophanaceae Peshkoff 1939 (Approved Lists 1980). Similarly in the case of the name Caryophanales Peshkoff 1939 (Approved Lists 1980) when its nomenclatural type Caryophanon Peshkoff 1939 (Approved Lists 1980) is placed in the same taxon as Bacillus Cohn 1872 (Approved Lists 1980), the nomenclatural type of Bacillales Prévot 1953 (Approved Lists 1980), then the two are considered to be heterotypic synonyms and the name which has priority is Caryophanales Peshkoff 1939 (Approved Lists 1980) While the rules of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes are unambiguous in determining the correct names despite the fact that the names Caryophanaceae Peshkoff 1939 (Approved Lists 1980) and Caryophanales Peshkoff 1939 (Approved Lists 1980) are rarely used.", }
