Halomonas sinaiensis Romano et al. 2011 emend. Hwang et al. 2016
Nomenclatural History
The species Halomonas sinaiensis was originally described by Romano et al. 2007. This name became validly published when it appeared on Validation List No. 141 in 2011. Hwang et al. published an emended description of this species in 2016. Oren established this name as a later heterotypic synonym of Wu et al. 2008 in 2017.

Hwang et al. (Antonie van Leeuwenhoek 109:1345-1352, 2016) proposed the reclassification of Halomonas caseinilytica (Wu et al. 2008) as a later synonym of Halomonas sinaiensis, based on the publication of the latter name in 2007 by Romano et al. However, the name H. sinaiensis was validly published only in 2011. Therefore the proposal by Hwang et al. is not appropriate; instead, the name H. sinaiensis can be proposed as a later synonym of H. casinilytica.
