Etymology
editThe name Crossiella derives from: Neo-Latin named for Thomas Cross, a microbiologist at the University of Bradford, who made many contributions to actinomycete biology and systematics.[2]
Species
editThe genus contains two species, namely[2]
- C. cryophila ( (Labeda and Lechevalier 1989) Labeda 2001, (type species of the genus); Greek kruos, icy cold, frost; Neo-Latin philus from Greek philos (φίλος) meaning friend, loving; Neo-Latin cryophila, cold-loving, referring to the low permissive temperature range for growth.)[1]
- C. equi ( Donahue et al. 2002, ; Latin equi, of the horse, referring to the source of isolation of this microorganism, equine placentas.)[3]
