Marichromatium is a genus in the phylum Pseudomonadota (Bacteria).[1] The name Marichromatium derives from: Latin mare, the sea; Neo-Latin Chromatium, a genus name; to give Marichromatium, the Chromatium of the sea, the truly marine Chromatium.[2]

Species[edit]

The genus contains five species (including basonyms and synonyms), namely:[2]

  • M. bheemlicum (Anil Kumar et al. 2007, New Latin bheemlicum, pertaining to Bheemli, the place from which the type strain was isolated)[3]
  • M. fluminis (Sucharita et al. 2010, Latin n fluminis, of a river, referring to the isolation of the type strain from sediment of the Baitarani River, located in Kalibanj Forest, Orissa, India)[4]
  • M. gracile (Strzeszewski 1913) Imhoff et al. 1998, (type species of the genus), Latin gracile, thin, slender)[5]
  • M. indicum (Arunasri et al. 2005, Latin indicum, Indian, pertaining to India, the country in which the type strain was isolated)[6]
  • M. purpuratum (Imhoff and Trüper 1980, Imhoff et al. 1998, Latin purpuratum, clad or dressed in purple)
