Tamlana is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidota (Bacteria). [1] Two species have been described so far: T. agarivorans and T. crocina . [2] [3] [4]

Contents

As all members of the Bacteroidota they are Gram negative. [3] [4] [5] '

They are non-flaggelate rod shaped, produced non-diffusible carotenoids (446 nm max abs, giving T. crocina its name) and use MK-6 as the respiratory quinone.

Etymology

The name Tamlana derives from:

Neo-Latin feminine gender noun Tamlana, named after Tamla, the old name for Jeju Island, referring to the region where the bacterium was isolated. [2]
