Stigmatella is a bacterium genus in the phylum Myxococcota.2
Etymology
The name Stigmatella derives from:
Latin neuter gender noun stigma -atis, brand, mark; Latin feminine gender dim. ending -ella; Neo-Latin feminine gender noun Stigmatella, small dark spot.3
Species
The genus contains three species (including basonyms and synonyms), namely3
- S. aurantiaca Berkeley and Curtis 1875 ((Type species of the genus).; Neo-Latin feminine gender adjective aurantiaca, orange colored.)
- S. erecta (Schroeter 1886) McCurdy 1971 (Latin feminine gender participle adjective erecta (from Latin v. erigo), erected, raised.)
- S. hybrida Reichenbach 2007 (Latin feminine gender adjective hybrida, half-breed, bastard.)4
Phylogeny
The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN)3 and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).5
