Halobacillus

Genus of bacteria

Halobacillus is a bacterial genus from the family of Bacillaceae.[1][2][3] Halobacillus species are gram positive, oxidase positive, catalase negative, rod shaped marine bacteria.[3] S.I. Paul et al. (2021)[3] isolated and characterized two species of Halobacillus (Halobacillus kuroshimensis and Halobacillus karajensis) from marine sponges (phylum: porifera) of the Saint Martin's Island of the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh.[3] Single colonies are pin headed (very small) in sized and opaque in color.[3]
