Proper Form	Lactococcus lactis cremoris (Orla-Jensen 1919) Schleifer et al. 1986
Nomenclatural History	The subspecies Lactococcus lactis cremoris was originally described by Schleifer et al. 1985. This name became validly published when it appeared on Validation List No. 20 in 1986. Schleifer et al. formed this name in 1985 by placing the subspecies Streptococcus lactis cremoris (Orla-Jensen 1919) Garvie and Farrow 1982 into the species Lactococcus lactis (Lister 1873) Schleifer et al. 1986. Li et al. elevated this subspecies to the rank of species to form the name Lactococcus cremoris (Orla-Jensen 1919) Li et al. 2021 in 2021.
