The Spirochaetales are an order of spirochete bacteria. Some species within this order are known to causes syphilis, Lyme disease, relapsing fever, and other illnesses. [3]
The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN) [4] and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). [5]

Spirochaeta is a genus of bacteria classified within the phylum Spirochaetota.
The Thermoprotei is a class of the Thermoproteota.
The Eubacteriales are an order of bacteria placed within the class Clostridia.
Myxococcaceae is a family of gram-negative, rod-shaped bacteria. The family Myxococcaceae is encompassed within the myxobacteria. The family is ubiquitously found in soils, marine, and freshwater environments. Production of compounds with medical uses by Myxococcaceae makes them useful in human health fields.
The Actinomycetales is an order of Actinomycetota. A member of the order is often called an actinomycete. Actinomycetales are generally gram-positive and anaerobic and have mycelia in a filamentous and branching growth pattern. Some actinomycetes can form rod- or coccoid-shaped forms, while others can form spores on aerial hyphae. Actinomycetales bacteria can be infected by bacteriophages, which are called actinophages. Actinomycetales can range from harmless bacteria to pathogens with resistance to antibiotics.
Entomoplasmatales is a small order of mollicute bacteria.
Picrophilaceae is a family of microbes within the order Thermoplasmatales.
The Actinomycetia are a class of bacteria.
The Acidimicrobiaceae are a family of Actinomycetota.
Rubrobacter is a genus of Actinomycetota. It is radiotolerant and may rival Deinococcus radiodurans in this regard.
The Halanaerobiales are an order of bacteria placed within the class Clostridia, and encompassing two families, the Halanaerobiaceae and the Halobacteroidaceae. Originally placed within the highly polyphyletic class Clostridia, according to the NCBI and LPSN, it is now thought to lie outside the Bacillota. Halanaerobiales are halophilic obligate anaerobes with a fermentative or homoacetogenic metabolism.
The Spirochaetaceae are a family of spirochete bacteria. Some species within this family are known to causes syphilis, Lyme disease, relapsing fever, and other illnesses.
The Glycomycetaceae are a family of bacteria.
Kineococcus is an Actinomycete genus within the family Kineosporiaceae.
Nocardioidaceae is a family of Gram-positive bacteria within the class Actinomycetia.
The Micrococcales are an order of bacteria in the phylum Actinomycetota.
The Nocardiopsaceae are a family of bacteria.
The Treponemataceae are a family of spirochete bacteria. The clade includes a number of significant pathogens, such as Treponemapallidum, the cause of human syphilis.
Geodermatophilus is a Gram-positive genus of bacteria from the phylum Actinomycetota.
Thermosipho is a genus of Gram-negative staining, anaerobic, and mostly thermophilic and hyperthermophilic bacteria in the family Thermotogaceae.
