Giant Sulfur Bacteria Discovered off African Coast
In an article in today’s issue of the journal Science, researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology in Germany, the University of Barcelona in Spain, and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts suggest the new genus and species be named Thiomargarita namibiensis(“sulphur pearl of Namibia”).
Thiomargarita - Wikipedia
Thiomargarita is a genus (family Thiotrichaceae) which includes the vacuolate sulfur bacteria species Thiomargarita namibiensis, Candidatus Thiomargarita nelsonii, and Ca. Thiomargarita joergensii. [4]
Thiomargarita namibiensis thrive in large numbers in the unstable sea floor, which is normally rich in sulfide but poor in nitrate. When storms churn the water sending a supply of nitrate-rich water into the sediment, the bacteria take in the nitrate and store it in the vacuole.

1999年4月16日 · The researchers named the new bacteria Thiomargarita namibiensis, which means "Sulfur Pearl of Namibia." The microbes store elemental sulfur just under the cell wall as well as nitrate in...
The Genus Thiomargarita - SpringerLink
2021年1月1日 · Thiomargarita namibiensis is by far the largest member in the group of “morphologically conspicuous sulfur bacteria” (La Riviere and Schmidt, 1992). This group harbors sulfur storing, colorless bacteria, which gain energy by the oxidation of sulfide and can be readily recognized by their very particular morphology.
