Description: Candidatus is not a genus name as our backbone suggests:
http://ecat-dev.gbif.org/usage/5900439

See all the relates usages which are all names prefixed by Candidatus which is a bacterial taxonomic status that needs to be parsed out:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candidatus



- The names included in the category Candidatus are usually written as follows: Candidatus (in italics), the subsequent name(s) in roman type (with an initial cap for the first subsequent name or the single subsequent name) and the entire name in quotation marks. For example, "Candidatus Phytoplasma", "Candidatus Phytoplasma allocasuarinae".

- According to the "IRPCM Phytoplasma/Spiroplasma Working Team - Phytoplasma taxonomy group" the abbreviation for Candidatus should be Ca. [7].
