Actinoalloteichus is a genus in the phylum Actinomycetota (Bacteria).[3]

Etymology

The name Actinoalloteichus derives from the Greek noun actis or actinos, ray (used to refer to actinomycetes); Greek adjective allos, another, the other; Greek masculine gender noun teichos, wall; Neo-Latin masculine gender noun Actinoalloteichus, actinomycete with a different wall.[4]

Species

The genus contains four species:[4]

• A. caeruleus (Baldacci 1944) Teo et al. 2021
• "A. fjordicus" Nouioui et al. 2017
• A. hoggarensis Boudjelal et al. 2015
• A. hymeniacidonis Zhang et al. 2006 (Neo-Latin genitive case noun hymeniacidonis, of Hymeniacidon, the generic name of the marine sponge Hymeniacidon perleve, the source of the type strain.)[5]
• A. nanshanensis Xiang et al. 2011 (Neo-Latin masculine gender adjective nanshanensis, of or pertaining to the Nanshan Temple in Guangxi Province in south China, from where the sample was collected.)[6]
• A. spitiensis Singla et al. 2005 (Neo-Latin masculine gender adjective spitiensis, pertaining to Spiti Valley, located in the Indian Himalayas, where the type strain was isolated.)[7]
