"Spirillaceae" Meaning
The Spirochaetaceae family, commonly referred to as the Spiral Bacteria, is a family of bacteria in the phylum Spirochaetes.
However, "Spirillaceae" is actually an incorrect spelling and an outdated classification.
The correct spelling is "Spirillales", but the current classification is actually divided into two orders, with Spirillinaceae being part of the order Spirillales and Borreliales being another order within the phylum Spirochaetes.
Spirillaceae was a former family within the order Spirillales, which contained several genera of spiral-shaped bacteria, including:
Spirillum
Tropheryma
Bergeyella
However, in 2013, the 14th International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes reclassified the family Spirillaceae and it's now considered as not valid family name, although the order Spirillales still exists.
The current-classified bacteria under the order Spirillales include species such as:
Borrelia burgdorferi (Lyme disease), and
Borrelia recurrentis (relapsing fever).
The name Spirochaetaceae is a family of the order Spirochaetales
