Characteristics

The cells are thin, flexible rods. Mostly species are motile by gliding. They are saccharolytic and need NaCl for growing.[1]

Metabolism

All species of Marinilabiliaceae are heterotrophic, they do not perform photosynthesis.[1] The genera Alkaliflexus and Anaerophaga as well as some other genera have a strictly fermentative metabolism. Marinilabilia is facultatively anaerobic. It has respiratory and fermentative types of metabolism.[1]

Systematics

The Marinilabiliaceae consists of the following genera:[2]

gollark: It's "great! I can make it look "better!"
gollark: Yes.
gollark: The preprocessor *is* "great", I have to admit.
