Etymology

The name Mariniflexile derives from: Latin adjective marinus. Latin participle adjective flexilis -e, pliant, pliable, flexible; New Latin neuter gender noun Mariniflexile, is a marine bacterium. The bacteria are rods, aerobic, move by gliding, gram negative, non-spore forming, and when grown on appropriate medium, the colonies are orange.[2]

Species

The genus contains six species:

  • M. fucanivorans ( Barbeyron et al. 2008, ; New Latin noun fucanum, fucan (polyfucose); Latin participle adjective vorans, devouring; New Latin participle adjective fucanivorans, fucan-devouring.)[3][4]
  • M. gromovii ( Nedashkovskaya et al. 2006, (Type species of the genus).; New Latin genitive case masculine gender noun gromovii, of Gromov, in honour of B. V. Gromov, the Russian aquatic and marine microbiologist.)[5][4]
  • M. aquimaris ( Wayne et al. 1987 ; Stackebrandt & Goebel, 1994).) [1][6]
  • M. jejuense (2006 emend. Jung and Yoon 2013.)[7]
  • M. soesokkakense (2006 Nedashkovskaya et al.; 2006 emend. Jung and Yoon 2013.)[1]
  • M. ostreae (Park et al. 2015, sp. nov)[1][8]
