1: The pattern of 16S rDNA signature nucleotides consists of positions 598-640 (U-G), 1059-1198 (U-A), and 1061-1195 (G-U). Genera belonging to the family are the type genus Actinomyces, Mobiluncus and Arcanobacterium.
2: Genera belonging to the family are the type genus Actinomyces, as well as the genera Actinobaculum, Arcanobacterium, Mobiluncus and Varibaculum. The 16S rRNA nucleotide signature is as that of the suborder.
3: In addition to the revised type genus Actinomyces, the family contains the established genera Actinobaculum, Arcanobacterium, Mobiluncus and Varibaculum and seven novel genera, namely Boudabousia, Bowdenia, Buchananella, Gleimia, Pauljensenia, Schaalia and Winkia.
