This phylum was first published as Tenericutes by Murray in a 1984 version of Bergey's Manual. It was republished in 2021 by Oren and Garrity under the revised Prokaryotic Code.

This phylum is not phylogenetically sound: it branches within Bacillota in phylogenomic and 16S analyses. See also Mollicutes § The phylum for Mollicutes.
