Nomenclatural History	The species Novosphingobium capsulatum was originally described and validly published by Takeuchi et al. 2001. This name was affected by Judicial Opinion 81 in 2008. Hördt et al. published an emended description of this species in 2020. Takeuchi et al. formed this name in 2001 by placing the species Sphingomonas capsulata (Leifson 1962) Yabuuchi et al. 1990 into the genus Novosphingobium Takeuchi et al. 2001. Yabuuchi et al. established Novosphingobium capsulatum as a later homotypic synonym of Sphingomonas capsulata (Leifson 1962) Yabuuchi et al. 1990 in 2002.
