Etymology
The name Actinomycetospora derives from:
New Latin noun actinomyces -etis (from Greek noun aktis, aktinos (ἀκτίς, ἀκτῖνος), a beam and Greek noun mukēs -ētos, mushroom or other fungus), an actinomycete; Greek feminine gender noun spora (σπορά), a seed and, in biology, a spore; New Latin feminine gender noun Actinomycetospora, referring to an actinomycete with spore chains.[2]
