Roseiflexus castenholzii is a thermophilic, filamentous, anoxygenetic phototroph (FAP) bacterium that lacks chlorosomes. [1][2]

Description

The cell diameter is of 0.8-1.0 micrometres. The bacterium is red to reddish-brown in colour and formed a distinct red bacterial mat in the natural environment.[3] It is able to grow photoheterotrophically under anaerobic light conditions and also chemoheterotrophically under aerobic dark conditions. Optimal growth conditions for this organism are 50 degrees C and pH 7.5-8.0. Its type strain is HLO8T (= DSM 13941T = JCM 11240T).
