Alkalibacterium is a genus in the phylum Bacillota (Bacteria). ^[2]

Etymology

The generic name Alkalibacterium derives from: Latin alkali (ashes of saltwort) alkali; and bacterium, a small rod, to give "a bacterium living under alkaline conditions". ^[3]

Species

The genus contains eleven species: ^[3]

• A. gilvum Ishikawa et al. 2013 ^[4]
• A. iburiense Nakajima et al. 2005, named for Iburi, the place where the micro-organism was isolated ^[5]
• A. indicireducens Yumoto et al. 2008, with indicireducens meaning indigo-reducing ^[6]
• A. kapii Ishikawa et al. 2009, kapii meaning of ka-pi, a Thai fermented shrimp paste ^[7]
• A. olivapovliticus corrig. Ntougias and Russell 2001, type species of the genus, with olivapovliticus meaning pertaining to the waste of the olives ^[8]
• A. olivoapovliticus Ntougias and Russell 2001 ^[4]
• A. pelagium Ishikawa et al. 2009, pelagium, of the sea, marine ^[7]
• A. psychrotolerans Yumoto et al. 2004, with psychrotolerans meaning tolerating a cold environment ^[9]
• A. putridalgicola Ishikawa et al. 2009, from putridalgicola meaning dweller on putrid marine algae ^[7]
• A. subtropicum shikawa et al. 2011 ^[4]
• A. thalassium Ishikawa et al. 2009 with thalassium meaning of/from the sea ^[7]
