---> ¤ Schlegelella Elbanna et al. 2003.

Note: Lütke-Eversloh et al. 2004 propose that ¤ Caenibacterium thermophilum Manaia et al. 2003 (the type species of the genus Caenibacterium) be a later heterotypic synonym of ¤ Schlegelella thermodepolymerans (the type species of the genus ¤ Schlegelella). According to Rule 37a, bacteriologists adhering to this proposal must change the name Caenibacterium to ¤ Schlegelella.
