Nomenclatural History	The species Pedobacter piscium was originally described and validly published by Steyn et al. 1998. Farfán et al. published an emended description of this species in 2014. Steyn et al. formed this name in 1998 by placing the species Sphingobacterium piscium Takeuchi and Yokota 1993 into the genus Pedobacter Steyn et al. 1998 emend. Wei et al. 2018. Farfán et al. established this name as a later heterotypic synonym of Pedobacter antarcticus (Shivaji et al. 1992) Farfán et al. 2014 in 2014.
