Order Spirochaetales

Phylum Thermodesulfobacteria

Phylum Thermomicrobia

Thermomicrobia phylum is a phenotype of the green non-sulfur bacteria. It is, as its name suggests, thermophilic. Some scientists suggest that the thermomicrobia phylum is not a true bacteriological phylum, but a sub-division of the green non-sulfur division along with the current chloroflexi phylum.[3]

Phylum Thermotogae
Family Thermotogaceae

Phylum Verrucomicrobia

Order Verrucomicrobiales
