• Notes:
  • 🥇 Nomenclatural type of the genus Xuhuaishuia Wang et al. 2016. Publication: Wang L, Liu Y, Shi X, Wang Y, Zheng Y, Dai X, Zhang XH. Xuhuaishuia manganoxidans gen. nov., sp. nov., a manganese-oxidizing bacterium isolated from deep-sea sediments from the Pacific Polymetallic Nodule Province.
