Synonymy ofMicropolyspora internatusandSaccharomonospora viridisand Emended Description ofSaccharomonospora viridis.
Transfer ofMicropolyspora internatusinto the genusSaccharomonosporaas "Saccharomonospora internatuscomb. nov." was proposed by Kurup and Greiner-Mai, but the nomenclatural change has not been validly published. Although the inclusion ofM. internatusin the genusSaccharomonosporahas not being established, the synonymy of "Saccharomonospora internatus" andS. viridiswas proposed by Greiner-Mai. A number of recent publications regardedM. internatusas a synonym ofS. viridis, but the nameM. internatusis still used in some cases instead ofS. viridis. This is because of the complicated history ofM. internatusandS. viridis, but it is different from the generally accepted view of prokaryotic taxonomy. To clearly verify the synonymy ofM. internatusandS. viridis, a literature review and experimental verification were conducted in this study. Based on the genomic and phenotypic characteristics obtained in this study, the synonymy of the two species was obvious. The emended description ofS. viridisis given.
