Description

Wurch et al., 2016: "Locality. Cistern Spring pool (water and sediment slurry), in the Norris Geyser basin of YNP (latitude: 44.723; longitude: 110.70400). Diagnosis. coccoid cells, 100–300 nm in diameter, obligate ectosymbionts/parasites on the surface of the thermoacidophilic crenarchaeote Acidilobus. Occasional free cells can be observed in the co-culture but their viability is unknown. Optimum growth is in co-culture with its host at 82 C and pH 3.6. First isolated from Cistern Spring, a hot acidic spring in YNP. On the basis of single-cell genomics and metagenomic data, related strains or species that may use other Crenarchaeota as hosts are present in other acidic hot springs in YNP, at pH 2–6"
