Abstract
The name Lactobacillus yamanashiensis (Nonomura et al.) was not included on the Approved Lists of Bacterial Names and currently has no standing in bacterial nomenclature. This name is here revived for the same organism with which it was originally associated. The type strain is 239 (= ATCC 27304). The name Lactobacillus yamanashiensis is not on the Approved Lists of Bacterial Names (6). However, the organism with which this name was originally associated has been isolated from wine musts (4) and fermenting ciders (l), and the name was validly published according to the International Code of Nomenclature of Bac- teria (2-4). This species can be clearly differenti- ated from all other named species of Lactobacil- lus by the very low guanine-plus-cytosine content of its deoxyribonucleic acid (the lowest in the genus) and the presence of diaminopimelic acid in its cell walls, as well as by other taxo- nomic characteristics. Consequently, the name Lactobacillus yamanashiensis is revived here for the same organism to which it originally referred, in accordance with Rule 24a (2).
