Taxonomy

Description
Spirobacillus cienkowskii, described initially by Elya Metchnikoff (1889), cienkowskii in memory of L. S. Cienkowsky. Proteobacteria of the order Silvanigrellales. Morphologically distinct as a tightly coiled bacterium (3.50 m in length by 1.07 m in width), production of a pink carotenoid. Infects the hemolymph of multiple species of Daphnia. Basis of assignment: 16S rRNA gene sequence GenBank accession number EU220836, oligonucleotide sequence S-*-Smet-1459-a-A-18 complementary to unique region of the 16S rRNA gene. Yet to be cultivated.
