Correction to: Antonie van Leeuwenhoek (2018) 111:1583–1630 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10482-018-1047-3
In Tables 9, 10 and 11 of this paper, a few minor errors were noticed in the information for the type strains of the following new name combinations proposed in our paper.
-
Table 9: Metamycoplasma subdolum comb. nov.
-
Table 10: Mesomycoplasma bovoculi comb. nov.
-
Table 10: Mesomycoplasma dispar comb. nov.
-
Table 11: Mycoplasmopsis columbina comb. nov.
-
Table 11: Mycoplasmopsis felis comb. nov.
To rectify these errors, in the table below, we are now providing revised protologues of these new name combinations with the correct information for the type strains indicated in the last column of the table.
Table: Corrected protologues of some new name combinations in our article
Table no. in the original article | New name combination and etymology | Basonym | Description | Type strain |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Table 9 | Metamycoplasma subdolum comb. nov. (sub.do’lum. L. neut. adj. subdolum, somewhat deceptive, alludes to the deceptive color change that led to the original erroneous description of the strains as urea-hydrolyzing) | Mycoplasma subdolum Lemcke and Kirchhoff 1979 (Approved Lists 1980) | The description of this taxon is as given by Lemcke and Kirchhoff (1979) | TB = ATCC 29870 = NCTC 10175 |
Table 10 | Mesomycoplasma bovoculi comb. nov. (bov.o’cu.li. L. n. bos bovis, ox, bull, cow; L. n. oculus -i, the eye; N.L. gen. n. bovoculi, of the bovine eye) | Mycoplasma bovoculi Langford and Leach 1973 (Approved Lists 1980) | The description of this taxon is as given by Langford and Leach (1973) | ATCC 29104 = NCTC 10141 |
Table 10 | Mesomycoplasma dispar comb. nov. (dis’par. L. neut. adj. dispar, dissimilar, different) | Mycoplasma dispar Gourlay and Leach 1970 (Approved Lists 1980) | The description of this taxon is as given by Gourlay and Leach (1970) | ATCC 27140 = NCTC 10125 |
Table 11 | Mycoplasmopsis columbina comb. nov. (co.lum.bi’na. L. fem. adj. columbina, of or pertaining to a pigeon) | Mycoplasma columbinum Shimizu et al. 1978 (Approved Lists 1980) | The description of this taxon is as given by Shimizu et al. (1978) | ATCC 29257 = NCTC 10178 |
Table 11 | Mycoplasmopsis felis comb. nov. (fe’lis. L. gen. n. felis, of a cat) | Mycoplasma felis Cole et al. 1967 (Approved Lists 1980) | The description of this taxon is as given by Cole et al. (1967) | ATCC 23391 = NCTC 10160 |
