Nomenclatural History
The species Chlorobium clathratiforme was originally described by Imhoff 2003. This name was affected by Judicial Opinion 81 in 2008. Imhoff formed this name in 2003 by placing the species (Szafer 1911) Lauterborn 1913 (Approved Lists 1980) into the genus Nadson 1906 (Approved Lists 1980) emend. Imhoff 2003. Imhoff established as a later homotypic synonym of Overmann and Pfennig 1990 in 2003.

The basonym for this name is Pelodictyon clathratiforme, however the type strain DSM 5477 comes from Pelodictyon phaeoclathratiforme because (as Imhoff 2003 states) Pelodictyon clathratiforme lacks a type culture and the 16S sequence is almost identical to Pelodictyon phaeoclathratiforme.
