Nomenclatural History
The species Bacillus amyloliquefaciens was originally described by Fukomoto 1943. It pre-dated the Approved Lists of Bacterial Names but was excluded from those lists. In 1987 the name was revived and validly published by Priest et al.. Wang et al. published an emended description of this species in 2008. In 2011, Borriss et al. reduced this species to the rank of subspecies to form (Priest et al. 1987) Borriss et al. 2011 .

Dunlap et al. 2016 suggests that Bacillus velezensis is not a later heterotypic synonym of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens.
