Clostridium cluster XIVb refers to a specific grouping within the broader classification of Clostridium bacteria based on phylogenetic analysis.
The designation of Clostridium clusters, including cluster XIVb, was first reported by Collins et al. It was proposed in 1994 with the aim of organizing the genus into more phylogenetically coherent groups.
In particular, Clostridium cluster XIVb is mentioned in the context of a proposal to reclassify certain species within the genus Clostridium to more accurately reflect their phylogenetic relationships
