Oceanospirillaceae is a family of Pseudomonadota. Most genera in this family live in environments with high concentrations of salt; they are halotolerant or halophilic. [4] They are marine, except Balneatrix which is found in fresh water and Venatorbacter, which is from terrestrial origin. [4] All members are strictly aerobic, except Neptunomonas which can perform fermentation reactions. [5]
