Taxonomic names for lactobacillus species have been updated (lactobacillus plantarum to Lactiplantibacillus, lactobacillus brevis to Levilactobacillus brevis, etc).

When we talk about these species, is it right to continue to refer to them as lactobacillus species?

Or is it preferable to call them lactic acid bacteria or family Lactobacillaceae?

Thank you for your advices
