Description

Description of Methanocrinis gen. nov.

Methanocrinis (Me.tha.no.cri'nis. N.L. neut. n. methanum, methane; L. masc. n. crinis, hair; N.L. masc. n. Methanocrinis, methane (-producing) hair).

Straight, rod-shaped cells with flat ends, non-motile. Organotrophic, obligate aceticlastic methanogens converting acetate into methane and CO2. Represented by neutrophilic and alkaliphilic species. Separation of the genus is justified by its distinct genome-based phylogenetic position.

The type species is Methanocrinis harundinaceus.
