In taxonomy, the Thermoplasmatales are an order of the Thermoplasmata.[1] All are acidophiles, growing optimally at pH below 2. Picrophilus is currently the most acidophilic of all known organisms growing at a minimum pH of -0.06[2]. Many of these organisms do not contain a cell wall, although this is not true in the case of Picrophilus. Most of members of the Thermotoplasmata are thermophilic.
