<p>Please note that entries are only based on the Catalogue of Life and the LPSN (see below). Since these sources incorporate entries based on (recent) publications in the International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology (IJSEM), it can happen that the year of publication is sometimes later than one might expect.</p>
<p>For example, <em>Staphylococcus pettenkoferi</em> was described for the first time in Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease in 2002 (doi: <ahref='https://doi.org/10.1016/s0732-8893(02)00399-1'>10.1016/s0732-8893(02)00399-1</a>
), but it was not before 2007 that a publication in IJSEM followed (doi: <ahref='https://doi.org/10.1099/ijs.0.64381-0'>10.1099/ijs.0.64381-0</a>
<li><p>1 entry of <em>Blastocystis</em> (<em>Blastocystis hominis</em>), although it officially does not exist (Noel <em>et al.</em> 2005, PMID 15634993)</p></li>
<li><p>6 families under the Enterobacterales order, according to Adeolu <em>et al.</em> (2016, PMID 27620848), that are not (yet) in the Catalogue of Life</p></li>

<p>The List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN) provides comprehensive information on the nomenclature of prokaryotes. LPSN is a free to use service founded by Jean P. Euzeby in 1997 and later on maintained by Aidan C. Parte.</p>
<p>As of February 2020, the regularly augmented LPSN database at DSMZ is the basis of the new LPSN service. The new database was implemented for the Type-Strain Genome Server and augmented in 2018 to store all kinds of nomenclatural information. Data from the previous version of LPSN and from the Prokaryotic Nomenclature Up-to-date (PNU) service were imported into the new system. PNU had been established in 1993 as a service of the Leibniz Institute DSMZ, and was curated by Norbert Weiss, Manfred Kracht and Dorothea Gleim.</p>
This package contains the complete taxonomic tree of almost all microorganisms (~70,000 species) from the authoritative and comprehensive Catalogue of Life (CoL, <ahref='http://www.catalogueoflife.org'>http://www.catalogueoflife.org</a>). The CoL is the most comprehensive and authoritative global index of species currently available. Nonetheless, we supplemented the CoL data with data from the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN, <ahref='https://lpsn.dsmz.de'>lpsn.dsmz.de</a>). This supplementation is needed until the <ahref='https://github.com/CatalogueOfLife/general'>CoL+ project</a> is finished, which we await.</p>
<p><ahref='catalogue_of_life.html'>Click here</a> for more information about the included taxa. Check which versions of the CoL and LPSN were included in this package with <code><ahref='catalogue_of_life_version.html'>catalogue_of_life_version()</a></code>.</p>
