Etymology

The etymology of the genus is: N.L. n. Acanthopleura, a genus of shellfish; N.L. masc. n. bacter, a rod; N.L. masc. n. Acanthopleuribacter, a rod from Acanthopleura, referring to the isolation of the first strain from the chiton Acanthopleura japonica.[2] The genus contains a single species[2] namely A. pedis ( Fukunaga et al. 2008, sp. nov. (Type species of the genus).; L. gen. n. pedis, of the foot, referring to the isolation of the type strain from the foot of a chiton.)[3]

gollark: They probably run on anomalous physics somehow. SCP-5128 and all.
gollark: Maybe SRAs are the *real* SCP-2950.
gollark: Also, Prometheus Labs best GoI.
gollark: Some people say they're a Prometheus Labs product, others say they're some weird SCP where their inventor was wiped out by a temporal change but the SRAs kept existing, some say they were invented in the 1800s, some in the 1900s or early 2000s, and some say they run on enslaved reality benders.
gollark: Also, I'm not sure we should trust them when nobody even knows exactly when or where they were made?
