Pseudomonas species constitute a significant group of pathogens in aquarium fish and frequently cause haemorrhagic septicaemia. This study conducted a taxonomic characterization of Pseudomonas isolates from aquarium fish exhibiting deep ulceration and general disease signs. A polyphasic approach was employed to ascertain the taxonomic affiliation of the strains.

- The taxonomy of plant pathogenic bacteria in a specific phylogenetic group is currently debated, with twenty named species recognized but many strains needing reclassification based on genomic studies.
- A comprehensive taxonomic analysis suggests there are at least 50 distinct phylogenomic species within this group, with several strains misclassified at the species level, highlighting a need for updated taxonomy.
- The study includes detailed discussions on several species, proposes a new taxonomic name for one unidentified species, and provides criteria for accurate strain identification essential for future research.
Strains 19SMN4 and ST27MN3 were isolated from marine sediments after enrichment with 2-methylnaphthalene and were classified as Pseudomonas stutzeri genomovar 4. Four other strains, BG 2, HT20, HT24, and A7, were isolated from sulphide-oxidizing bioreactors or activated sludge affiliated with the same clade in the 16S rRNA phylogenetic tree. P.

At least sixteen named species have to be included in the genus, together with 22 genomovars of . To clarify the taxonomy of , a core-genome phylogeny of 200 strains in the genus was inferred and monophyletic strains with average nucleotide identities (ANIb) with values equal to or higher than 95 were grouped in the same phylogenomic species.
