Stetteria is a genus of archaeans in the family Desulfurococcaceae. [1] Up to now there is only one species of this genus known, Stetteria hydrogenophila. [2]
The Thermoprotei is a class of the Thermoproteota.
The Desulfurococcales is an order of the Thermoprotei, part of the kingdom Archaea. The order encompasses some genera which are all thermophilic, autotrophs which utilise chemical energy, typically by reducing sulfur compounds using hydrogen. Desulfurococcales cells are either regular or irregular coccus in shape, with forms of either discs or dishes. These cells can be single, in pairs, in short chains, or in aciniform formation.
The Pyrodictiaceae are a family of disc-shaped anaerobic microorganisms belonging to the order Desulfurococcales, in the domain Archaea. Members of this family are distinguished from the other family (Desulfurococcaceae) in the order Desulfurococcales by having an optimal growth temperature above 100 °C, rather than below 100 °C.
In taxonomy, Caldivirga is a genus of the Thermoproteaceae.
In taxonomy, Thermocladium is a genus of the Thermoproteaceae.
In taxonomy, Vulcanisaeta is a genus of the Thermoproteaceae.
Acidilobus is a genus of archaea in the family Acidilobaceae.
Aeropyrum is a genus of archaea in the family Desulfurococcaceae.
In taxonomy, Desulfurococcus is a genus of the Desulfurococcaceae.
In taxonomy, Staphylothermus is a genus of the Desulfurococcaceae.
Sulfophobococcus is a genus of the Desulfurococcaceae.
Thermodiscus is a genus of archaea in the family Desulfurococcaceae. The only species is Thermodiscus maritimus.
Thermosphaera is a genus of the Desulfurococcaceae. They are a group of prokaryotic organisms which have been discovered in extremely hot environments such as sulfur springs, volcanoes, and magma pools. Isolates of Thermosphaera were first identified in 1998 from the Obsidian Pool in Yellowstone National Park.
In taxonomy, Hyperthermus is a genus of the Pyrodictiaceae.
Pyrodictium is a genus in the family Pyrodictiaceae. It is a genus of submarine hyperthermophilic Archaea whose optimal growth temperature range is 80 to 105 °C. They have a unique cell structure involving a network of cannulae and flat, disk-shaped cells. Pyrodictium are found in the porous walls of deep-sea vents where the temperatures inside get as high as 400 °C, while the outside marine environment is typically 3 °C. Pyrodictium is apparently able to adapt morphologically to this type of hot–cold habitat.
Pyrolobus is a genus of the Pyrodictiaceae.
Thermofilum is a genus of archaea in the family Thermofilaceae.
Ignisphaera is a genus of the Desulfurococcales. Ignisphaera aggregans is a coccoid- shaped, fourth type strain that is strictly anaerobes with anaerobic respiration. This archaea species are hyperthermophiles that were found in New Zealand's hot springs in Kuirau Park, Rotorua.
Caldococcus is a genus of Archaea in the order Desulfurococcales.
Methanococcoides burtonii is a methylotrophic methanogenic archaeon first isolated from Ace Lake, Antarctica. Its type strain is DSM 6242.
