Spirochaeta is a genus of bacteria classified within the phylum Spirochaetota.
Desulfovibrionales are a taxonomic order of bacteria belonging to the phylum Thermodesulfobacteriota, with four families. They are Gram-negative. The majority are sulfate-reducing, with the exception of Lawsonia and Bilophila. All members of this order are obligately anaerobic. Most species are mesophilic, but some are moderate thermophiles.
The Syntrophobacterales are an order of Thermodesulfobacteriota. All genera are strictly anaerobic. Many of the family Syntrophobacteraceae are sulfate-reducing. Some species are motile by using one polar flagellum.
Desulfovibrionaceae is a family of bacteria belonging to the phylum Thermodesulfobacteriota.
The Aquificaceae family are bacteria that live in harsh environmental settings such as hot springs, sulfur pools, and hydrothermal vents. Although they are true bacteria as opposed to the other inhabitants of extreme environments, the Archaea, Aquificaceae genera are an early phylogenetic branch.
Entomoplasmatales is a small order of mollicute bacteria.
The Actinomycetia are a class of bacteria.
Pectinatus is a genus of Bacillota bacteria classified within the class Negativicutes.
Megamonas is a genus of Bacillota bacteria classified within the class Negativicutes.
Dialister is a genus of Bacillota bacteria classified within the class Negativicutes.
The Thermaerobacter are an unassigned genus of bacteria placed within the class clostridia. Originally placed within the highly polyphyletic class Clostridia, order Clostridiales, according to the NCBI and LPSN, it is now thought to lie outside of the Bacillota.
Hydrogenobacter is a genus of bacteria, one of the few in the phylum Aquificota. Type species is H. thermophilus. This genus belongs to Bacteria as opposed to the other inhabitants of extreme environments, the Archaea.
Phycisphaeraceae is a family of bacteria.
Rhodopirellula is a genus of marine bacteria from the family of Planctomycetaceae.
Planctopirus is a genus of bacteria from the family of Planctomycetaceae
Gimesia is a genus of bacteria from the family of Planctomycetaceae with nine known species. Gimesia maris has been isolated from neritic water from Puget Sound in the United States.
