Tumebacillus permanentifrigorisis is a species of Gram positive, strictly aerobic, bacterium. The cells are rod-shaped and form spores. It was first isolated from a 9-meter-deep permafrost sample from the Canadian high Arctic. The species was first described in 2008, and the name refers to its original isolation from permafrost. T. permanentifrigoris was the first species in the new genus, Tumebacillus, and is the type species for the genus. The isolate may have survived 5000–7000 years in ice before being discovered. [1]

The optimum growth temperature for T. permanentifrigoris is 25-30 °C, and can grow in the 5-37 °C range and in pH 5.5-8.9. The bacterium would not grow in liquid broth media, but formed yellow colonies on agar. [1]

Alicyclobacillus fastidiosus is a species of Gram positive, strictly aerobic, bacterium. The bacteria are acidophilic and produce endospores. It was first isolated from apple juice. The species was first described in 2007, and the name refers to the fastidious nature of the organism; the bacteria would start to die off after 7 days when plated on typical agar for isolating Alicyclobacillus. Additionally, the species produced fewer spores than other members of its genus, and took much longer to produce the spores.

Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius is a species of Gram positive, strictly aerobic, bacterium. The bacteria are acidophilic, thermophilic, and produce endospores. The first identified strains of A. acidocaldarius were from geysers in Yellowstone National Park and fumerole soil in Hawaii Volcano National Park. The species was originally classified as Bacillus acidocaldarius in 1971, but further 16S rRNA studies found that the species belonged in the newly created genus Alicyclobacillus. The species name is derived from the Latin acidum (acid) and caldarius, referring to the acidic and high temperature environments from which it was first isolated. Thomas D. Brock was one of the researchers who first categorized the species; his discovery of Thermus aquaticus allowed for other researchers to discover Taq polymerase and polyermase chain reaction (PCR).

Alicyclobacillus disulfidooxidans a species of Gram positive, strictly aerobic, bacterium. The bacteria are acidophilic and produced endospores. It was first isolated from waterwater sludge in Blake Lake City, Quebec, Canada. The species was first identified in 1996, but was classified as Sulfobacillus disulfidooxidansis. It was reclassified as Alicyclobacillus in 2005. The name is derived from the Latin duplus (double), sulfur (sulfur), and oxido (oxidize), referring to the bacterium's ability to oxidize disulfide.

It was first isolated from wastewater from a cassava processing plant in Guangxi, China. The species was first described in 2013, and the name refers to the flagella found in the cells. T. flagellatus was the third species of Tumebacillus to be discovered, but was the first found to be motile. T. flagellatus was found during a survey for bacteria that were able to hydrolyze pullulan or starch.

Effusibacillus consociatus is a species of Gram positive, aerobic, bacterium. The cells are rod-shaped and form spores. It was first isolated from a blood sample from a 51-year-old woman, although it was not implicated as a pathogen. The species name is derived from Latin consociatus, to indicate that the bacteria was associated with a human clinical case.

Effusibacillus pohliae is a species of Gram positive, aerobic, thermophilic bacterium. The cells are rod-shaped and form spores. It was first isolated from Mount Melbourne, Antarctica. The species is named after the genus of Pohlia nutans, a species of moss that was colonizing the area where the type strain was isolated. E. pohliae has also been isolated from a geothermal heat pump in South Korea.

<i>Arthrobacter bussei</i> Species of bacterium

Arthrobacter bussei is a pink-coloured, aerobic, coccus-shaped, Gram-stain-positive, oxidase-positive and catalase-positive bacterium isolated from cheese made of cow's milk. A. bussei is non-motile and does not form spores. Rod–coccus life cycle is not observed. Cells are 1.1–1.5 μm in diameter.
