Nomenclatural note
Vávra & al. (2005): "Should the organism in question be transferred back into the genus Gurleya, to which it was originally assigned by Vávra (1963) and Komárek and Vávra (1967)? We believe that such action would not be justified and would only cause confusion in microsporidian taxonomy". - (30 January 2012) - M.D. Guiry
