Abstract

A recent review of the nomenclatural history of

Rhodococcus equi

and its heterotypic synonyms reveals a situation in which the strict application of the Rules of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes have resulted in the renaming of this known zoonotic pathogen, which may be reasonably viewed as a perilous name. This situation can be remedied only by the Judicial Commission rendering an opinion to conserve the name

Rhodococcus equi

and to reject its earlier heterotypic synonym,

Corynebacterium hoagii
