Taxonomy

Description
The bacterium specifically attaches to the cell surfaces of Trichonympha acuta and Trichonympha lata in the gut of Cryptocercus punctulatus. The cell dimensions are 3–13 µm by 0.4 µm. This assignment is based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence (LC866555, LC866555) and detection by FISH using the oligonucleotide probe Deferri-term-661 (Table S2). A complete genome sequence (AP043677) was obtained. This species includes phylotypes CpT06-9, CpT15-2, and CpT32-4.
