Despite the prevalence of the name Ca. Patescibacteria in the scientific literature, it is not officially recognized under the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes and lacks a nomenclatural type. Here, we rectify this situation by describing two closely related circular metagenome-assembled genomes and by proposing one of them (ABY1TS) to serve as the nomenclatural type for the species Patescibacterium danicumTS gen. nov., sp. nov. according to the rules of the SeqCode. Rank-normalized phylogenomic inference confirmed the stable placement of P. danicumTS in the Ca. Patescibacteria class ABY1. Based on these results, we propose Patescibacterium gen. nov. to serve as the type genus for associated higher taxa, including the phylum Patescibacteriota phyl. nov. We complement our proposal with a genomic characterization, metabolic reconstruction, and biogeographical analysis of Patescibacterium. Our results confirm small genome sizes (&amp;lt;1 Mbp), low GC content (&amp;gt;36%), and the occurrence of long gene coding insertions in the 23S rRNA sequences, along with reduced metabolic potential, inferred symbiotic lifestyle, and a global distribution. In summary, our proposal will provide nomenclatural stability to the fourth-largest phylum in the bacterial domain.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/ismeco\/ycae147","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,18]],"date-time":"2024-11-18T07:19:04Z","timestamp":1731914344000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Proposal
