Marihabitans
Marihabitans is a genus of Gram positive, nonmotile, non-sporeforming bacteria. The bacteria are strictly aerobic and mesophilic. Cells of the genus are irregular rods or coccoid. The genus name is derived from Latin mare (sea) and habitans (inhabiting), referring to its original isolation from seawater.[1] The genus is monospecific, with M. asiaticum as the only species.[2]
