Legionella tunisiensis is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella isolated from hypersaline lake water from the Lake Sabkha in Tunisia. [3] [4] [5] [6]
Legionella adelaidensis is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, aerobic bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from cooling tower water in Adelaide in South Australia.
Legionella drozanskii is a Gram-negative, catalase-positive, oxidase-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from tank well water in Leeds in England.
Legionella dumoffii is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella with a monopolar flagellum which was isolated from lung tissue of a patient who suffered from fatal pneumonia. L. dumoffii occurs in soil and freshwater environments and can cause human pneumonia and accidentally induce other diseases such as prosthetic valve endocarditis and septic arthritis.
Legionella fairfieldensis is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella with a single polar flagellum, which was isolated from cooling tower water in Fairfield, Victoria.
Legionella gormanii is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from soil samples from a creek bank in Atlanta and from the bronchial brush specimen of a patient who suffered from pneumonia. L. gormanii can cause atypical pneumonia together with L. pneumophila.
Legionella hackeliae is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from human lung aspirate in Pennsylvania.
Legionella israelensis is a Gram-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, motile bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from water from an oxidation pond in Ga'ash in Israel.
Legionella maceachernii is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from a potable water cistern. L. maceachernii can cause pneumonia.
Legionella massiliensis is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from water from a cooling tower in Bouches du Rhone in France.
Legionella parisiensis is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from cooling tower water in Paris.
Legionella quinlivanii is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from a cooling tower pond in London in United Kingdom.
Legionella rubrilucens is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from tap water in Los Angeles, hot spring water in Niigata in Japan, and a patient who suffered from pneumonia.
Legionella shakespearei is a Gram-negative, weakly oxidase-positive, catalase-positive bacterium with a single polar flagellum from the genus Legionella which was isolated from a cooling tower in Stratford-upon-Avon in England. L. shakespearei is named after William Shakespeare because it was isolated in Stratford-upon-Avon.
Legionella spiritensis is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella which was isolated from the Spirit Lake near Mount St. Helens.
Legionella steigerwaltii is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella isolated from tap water in St. Croix on the Virgin Islands.

Legionella tucsonensis is a Gram-negative bacterium from the genus Legionella with a single polar flagellum, which was isolated from the pleural fluid of a renal transplant patient with immunosuppressive therapy in Tucson, Arizona.
Legionella waltersii is a Gram-negative catalase- and oxidase-positive bacterium from the genus Legionella with a single polar flagellum which was isolated from a drinking water distribution system in Adelaide in Australia. L. waltersii is named after Reginald P. Walters. Legionella waltersii may can cause pneumonia.
Fonticella is a strictly anaerobic, moderately thermophilic, halotolerant and non-motile bacterial genus from the family of Clostridiaceae with one known species. Fonticella tunisiensis has been isolated from water from a hot spring in Tunisia.
