Abstract

The prokaryotic generic names Bogoriella Groth et al. 1997 and Stella Vasilyeva 1985 are illegitimate because they are later homonyms of the genus names Bogoriella Zahlbr. 1928 (Ascomycota) and Stella Massee 1889 (Basidiomycota) (Principle 2 and Rule 51b(4) of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes). We therefore propose the replacement names Allobogoriella gen. nov., Allobogoriella caseilytica comb. nov., Allobogoriellaceae fam. nov., Allobogoriellales ord. nov., Allostella gen. nov., Allostella humosa comb. nov. and Allostellaceae fam. nov. as replacement names for the illegitimate prokaryotic names Bogoriella, Bogoriella caseilytica, Bogoriellaceae, Bogoriellales, Stella, Stella humosa, Stella vacuolata and Stellaceae, respectively.
