Proper Form	Streptococcus oralis Bridge and Sneath 1982 emend. Jensen et al. 2016
Nomenclatural History	The species Streptococcus oralis was originally described and validly published by Bridge and Sneath 1982. Kilian et al. published an emended description of this species in 1989. A subsequent emendation was proposed by Jensen et al. in 2016. In 2016, Jensen et al. reduced this species to the rank of subspecies to form Streptococcus oralis oralis (Bridge and Sneath 1982) Jensen et al. 2016 .
