Submitted by Ferrari, Belinda

Phylum Eremiobacterota

Etymology
[E.re.mi.o.bac.te.ro'ta] N.L. masc. n. Eremiobacter, a rod from a desert; N.L. suff. -ota, ending to denote a phylum; N.L. neut. pl. n. Eremiobacterota, the Eremiobacter phylum
Nomenclatural type
Genus Eremiobacter
Description
Lineage previously known as WPS-2, originally described from 16S by Nogales et al (2001). Phylum defined based on phylogenomic analysis of 38 conserved marker genes.

Phylum Dormibacterota

Etymology
[Dor.mi.bac.te.ro'ta] N.L. masc. n. Dormibacter, a dormant rod; N.L. suff. -ota, ending denoting a phylum; N.L. neut. pl. n. Dormibacterota, the Dormibacter phylum
Nomenclatural type
Genus Dormibacter
Description
