Marvinbryantia Wolin et al. 2008, gen. nov.
Type species: ¤ Marvinbryantia formatexigens (Wolin et al. 2004) Wolin et al. 2008.
Illegitimate synonym: ¤ Bryantella Wolin et al. 2004.
Etymology: N.L. fem. n. Marvinbryantia, in honour of Marvin P. Bryant (1925-2000), in recognition of his outstanding contributions to the microbial ecology of anaerobic ecosystems.

Note: The name ¤ Bryantella Wolin et al. 2004 is illegitimate because it is a later homonym of Bryantella Chickering, 1946 (Animalia, Arthropoda, Arachnida, Araneae, Salticidae, Dendryphantinae, Dendryphantini), and a later homonym of Bryantella Britton 1957 (Animalia, Arthropoda, Scarabaeoidea, Scarabaeidae, Melolonthinae). See Principle 2. Consequently, a new genus designation Marvinbryantia has been proposed by Wolin et al. 2008.

Note: ¤ Bryantella formatexigens Wolin et al. 2004 is illegitimate because of precedence of Bryantella Chickering, 1946 (Animalia, Arthropoda, Arachnida, Araneae, Salticidae, Dendryphantinae, Dendryphantini), and a later homonym of Bryantella Britton 1957 (Animalia, Arthropoda, Scarabaeoidea, Scarabaeidae, Melolonthinae). See Principle 2. Consequently, a new species designation Marvinbryantia formatexigens (Wolin et al. 2004) Wolin et al. 2008 has been proposed by Wolin et al. 2008.
