Marinobacterium maritimum is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, aerobic and motile bacterium from the genus of Marinobacterium which has been isolated from sediments from the Arctic. ^{[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]} S.I. Paul et al. (2021) ^[5] isolated, characterized and identified Marinobacterium maritimum from marine sponges of the Saint Martin's Island Area of the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh. ^[5]
