Register list for Lucifugimonas marina gen. nov. sp. nov. and their lineage

Submitted by Lim, Yeonjung

Order Lucifugimonadales

Etymology: [Lu.ci.fu.gi.mo.na.da'les] N.L. fem. n. Lucifugimonas, referring to the type genus Lucifugimonas; -ales, ending to denote an order; N.L. fem. pl. n. Lucifugimonadales, the Lucifugimonas order
Nomenclatural type: Genus Lucifugimonas
Description: Aerobic, oligotrophic, and chemoheterotrophic. Gram-negative with a monoderm envelope. Cells are non-motile and dimorphic with short rods of ~0.8 × 0.4 µm and cocci of ~0.5 µm diameter. Do not form colonies on solid agar plates. Grows very slowly and reaches stationary phase at ~50 days of growth in artificial seawater medium. Light inhibits cellular growth.
Classification: Bacteria » Chloroflexota » Dehalococcoidia » Lucifugimonadales
