| Proposed Taxon | Etymology | Description | Parent Taxon | Type | Registry URL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Phylum Spongiamicota | [Spon.gi.a.mi.co'ta] N.L. masc. n. Spongiamicus, referring to the type genus Spongiamicus; -ota, ending to denote a phylum; N.L. neut. pl. n. Spongiamicota, the Spongiamicus phylum | The highest relative abundances of this phylum were observed in sponge metagenomes from the marine sponge Aplysina aerophoba from the Gulf of Piran, Slovenia, and Ssperm DNA of Galaxea fascicularis from an undisclosed coral reef sample. The phylum has a global distribution and was mainly present in public shotgun metagenome datasets labelled as marine metagenomes, marine sediment metagenomes, seawater metagenome, and sponge metagenome.

Spongiamicales | Spongiamicus | seqco.de/i:49705 |
| Genus Spongiamicus | [Spon.gi.a'mi.cus] L. fem. n. spongia, sponge, the colloquial term for the eukaryotic lineage Porifera; L. masc. n. amicus, friend; N.L. masc. n. Spongiamicus, a friend of sponges | The description is the same as for the nomenclatural type Spongiamicus weybensis.

Spongiamicaceae | Spongiamicus weybensisTs | seqco.de/i:49706 |
| Species Spongiamicus weybensisTs | [we.y.ben'sis] N.L. masc. adj. weybensis, of or pertaining to Lake Weyba, a saltwater lake in Queensland, Australia | S. weybensis is inferred as organoheterotrophs but could potentially fix CO2 via the Wood-LjungdahlWL pathway. It also encodes genes for nitrogen fixation.
