Phylogeny
The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature and the phylogeny is based on whole-genome sequences.
Notes
- ↑ Auritidibacter, Citricoccus, Enteractinococcus, Falsarthrobacter, Galactobacter, Garicola, Micrococcoides, Neomicrococcus, Pseudoglutamicibacter, Psychromicrobium, Specibacter, and Zhihengliuella are not included in this phylogenetic tree.
