Taxonomy

Description
Type strain is Verrucolacustris abundans MiH-22 (GCA_965194535.1). In contrast to other Methylacidiphilales including the only described genus Methylacidimicrobium (Methylacidiphilaceae, GCF_902143385.2), no genes for C1 metabolism were identified, therefore we suggest the establishment of a new family of non-methanotrophic Methylacidiphilales. The closest cultivated relative is Methylacidimicrobium cyclopophantes 3B_2 (GCF_902143385.2), with an average amino acid identity of 49.5% and average nucleotide identity of 62.8%. Current GTDB classification (R220): d__Bacteria; p__Verrucomicrobiota; c__Verrucomicrobiae; o__Methylacidiphilales; f__UBA3015.
