Bacterionema Gilmour et al. 1961, genus.
Type species: ¤ Bacterionema matruchotii (Mendel 1919) Gilmour et al. 1961 (Approved Lists 1980).

---> ¤ Corynebacterium Lehmann and Neumann 1896 (Approved Lists 1980).

Note: Collins 1983 proposes to transfer ¤ Bacterionema matruchotii (Mendel 1919) Gilmour et al. 1961 (Approved Lists 1980), the type species of the genus Bacterionema, to the genus ¤ Corynebacterium as ¤ Corynebacterium matruchotii (Mendel 1919) Collins 1983, comb. nov. According to Rule 37a, bacteriologists adhering to this proposal must change the name Bacterionema to ¤ Corynebacterium.
