Actinopolymorpha is a genus in the phylum Actinomycetota (Bacteria). ^[3]

Etymology

The name Actinopolymorpha derives from:
Greek noun aktis, aktinos (ἀκτίς, ἀκτῖνος); Greek adjective polumorphos, multiform, manifold; Neo-Latin feminine gender noun (Neo-Latin feminine gender adjective used as a substantive) Actinopolymorpha, actinomycete of many shapes. ^[4]

• A. albaCao et al. 2009 (Latin feminine gender adjective alba, white, referring to the white substrate mycelium.) ^[5]
• A. cephalotaxiYuan et al. 2010 (Neo-Latin genitive case noun cephalotaxi, of Cephalotaxus, isolated from Cephalotaxus fortunei from which the rhizosphere soil sample was collected.) ^[6]
• A. pittosporiKaewkla and Franco 2011
• A. rutilaWang et al. 2008 (Latin feminine gender adjective rutila, red inclining to golden-yellow, referring to the colour of colonies produced.) ^[7]
• A. singaporensisWang et al. 2001 (Neo-Latin feminine gender adjective singaporensis, of or belonging to Singapore, signifying the country where the type strain was isolated.) ^[8]
