NOTES Validation of the Publication of New Names and New Combinations Previously Effectively Published Outside the IJSB List No. 29-t The purpose of this announcement is to effect the valid publication of the following new names and new combinations under the procedure described previously [Int. J. Syst. Bacteriol. 27(3):iv, 19771. Authors and other individuals wishing to have new names and/or combinations included in future lists should send the pertinent repriqt or a photocopy thereof to the IJSB (c/o ASM) for confirmation that all of the other requirements for valid publication have been met. It should be noted that the date of valid publication of these new names and combinations is the date of publication of this list, not the date of the original publication of the names and combinations. The authors of the new names and combinations are as given below, and these authors' names will be included in the author index of the present issue and in the volume author index in this issue of the IJSB. Inclusion of a name on these lists validates the name and thereby makes it available in bacteriological nomenclature. The inclusion of a name on this list is not to be construed as taxonomic acceptance of the taxon to which the name is applied. Indeed, some of these names may, in time, be shown to be synonyms, or the organisms may be transferred to another genus, thus necessitating the creation of a new combination.
