Marinobacter is a genus of bacteria found in sea water. They are also found in a variety of salt lakes. A number of strains and species can degrade hydrocarbons. The species involved in hydrocarbon degradation include M. alkaliphilus, M. arcticus, M. hydrocarbonoclasticus, M. maritimus, and M. squalenivorans.
Qipengyuania gaetbuli is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming and slightly halophilic bacteria from the genus Qipengyuania which has been isolated from sea water from the Yellow Sea in Korea.
Marinobacter algicola is a Gram-negative, aerobic and moderately halophilic bactebacterium from the genus of Marinobacter which has been isolated from the dinoflagellate Gymnodinium catenatum in Scotland.
Marinobacter daepoensis is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, slightly halophilic and motile bacterium from the genus of Marinobacter which has been isolated from sea water from the Yellow Sea in Korea.
Marinobacter daqiaonensis is a Gram-negative and moderately halophilic bacterium from the genus of Marinobacter which has been isolated from sediments of the Daqiao saltern in Qingdao.
Marinobacter excellens is a Gram-negative and halophilic bacterium from the genus of Marinobacter which has been isolated from sediments from the Chazhma Bay from the Sea of Japan.

Marinobacter salsuginis is a Gram-negative and moderately halophilic bacterium from the genus of Marinobacter which has been isolated from seawater from the Shaban Deep from the Red Sea. The strain BS2 of Marinobacter salsuginis can reduce the mortality of the shrimps Penaeus monodon and Litopenaeus vannamei by killing the dinoflagellate Noctiluca scintillans. The strain 5N-3 can degrade 1,2-Dichloroethene (cis-DCE) in the absence of inducing substrates like phenol.[6]
