Nomenclatural History
The genus Anaerobacter was originally proposed by Duda et al. 1987. This name became validly published when it appeared on Validation List No. 57 in 1996. Rainey et al. transferred the members of this genus into Prazmowski 1880 (Approved Lists 1980) emend. Lawson and Rainey 2016 in 2009.

Tindall 2016 questions the unification of this genus with Clostridium.
