The file on Rhamny

Rhamny is a rod, like Ace and Deuce, and he makes lactic acid like them too. What sets him apart is the paperwork.

In 2020 microbiologists split the old Lactobacillus genus into 25 genera, and L. rhamnosus became Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus. Eighteen letters, before you even get to the species.
