Abstract
Two novel thermophilic and slightly acidophilic strains, Kam940Tand Kam1507b, which shared 99 % 16S rRNA gene sequence identity, were isolated from terrestrial hot springs of the Uzon caldera on the Kamchatka peninsula. Cells of both strains were non-motile, regular cocci. Growth was observed between 55 and 85 °C, with an optimum at 65–70 °C (doubling time, 6.1 h), and at pH 4.5–7.5, with optimum growth at pH 5.5–6.0. The isolates were strictly anaerobic organotrophs and grew on a narrow spectru
