Taxonomy

Description

The genus is defined by relative evolutionary divergence (RED) and phylogenomic analysis as a monophyletic group. Short oval rods that occur singly, in pairs or in short chains. Gram positive. Nonmotile. Use H2 + CO2 as substrates for methanogenesis, might also grow poorly on formate. Grow poorly on mineral medium with vitamins; yeast extract, casamino acids, and rumen fluid strongly stimulate growth. Optimum temperature is 30–37 °C.
