---> ¤ Hydrogenobacter Kawasumi et al. 1984.

Note: Stöhr et al. 2001 propose to transfer ¤ Calderobacterium hydrogenophilum Kryukov et al. 1984 (the type species of the genus Calderobacterium) to the genus ¤ Hydrogenobacter as ¤ Hydrogenobacter hydrogenophilus (Kryukov et al. 1984) Stöhr et al. 2001, comb. nov. According to Rule 37a, bacteriologists adhering to this proposal must change the name Calderobacterium to ¤ Hydrogenobacter.

Calderobacterium hydrogenophilum Kryukov et al. 1984, sp. nov. (Type species of the genus).
Type strain (see also StrainInfo.net): strain INMI Z-829 = DSM 2913 = JCM 8158.
GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of the type strain: Z30242.
Etymology: N.L. n. hydrogenum (from Gr. n. hudôr, water; and Gr. v. gennaô, to produce), hydrogen (that which produces water, so called because it forms water when exposed to oxygen); N.L. neut. adj. philum (from Gr. neut. adj. philon), friend, loving; N.L. neut. adj. hydrogenophilum, hydrogen loving.
