Etymology
Gr. masc. n. magnes, pertaining to a magnet; L. fem. n. vallis, valley; L. fem. n. mors, death; N.L. gen. n. magnetovallimortis, of the magnetic valley of death, referring to the presence of magnetosomes and the organism’s association with extreme or anoxic environments, metaphorically described as a "valley of death."

Taxonomy

Description
Species description is as for genus, with the following additional characteristics. Cells are, on average, 2 m long and 1 m wide.
Capable of chemoorganoheterotrophic growth, using fumarate, lactate, pyruvate, malate and succinate as electron donors and carbon sources. Sulfate and thiosulfate are used as terminal electron acceptors. Addition of at least 10 g NaCl L−1 is necessary for growth; optimum NaCl concentration for growth is 15–25 g L−1. Temperature requirements: Tmin, 10 ◦C; Topt, 28 ◦C; Tmax, 35 ◦C. The pH range for growth is 6.5–7.5; optimum 7. The G–C content of the genome is 41 mol%. The major cellular fatty acids are C16:1 7c, C16:0, C17:1 6c, C15:0, C17:0, C15:1 6c, C18:1 7c, C17:1 8c and C14:0. The type strain, BW-1T (= JCM 18010T = DSM 103535T) was isolated from a brackish spring in Death Valley National Park (California, USA). The taxonumber is TA00086.
