Micropolyspora is a defunct genus of bacteria within family Nocardiaceae. Members of this genus were transferred to new genera in families Nocardiaceae, Streptosporangiaceae and Pseudonocardiaceae.[1] These changes effectively ended the official status of this genus, but the name persists in older research articles, and is occasionally used in contemporary settings.
