Nitrospira
''Nitrospira'' (from Latin: nitro, meaning "nitrate" and Greek: spira, meaning "spiral") translate into “a nitrate spiral” is a genus of bacteria within the monophyletic clade of the Nitrospirota phylum. The first member of this genus was described 1986 by Watson et al. isolated from the Gulf of Maine. The bacterium was named ''Nitrospira marina''. Populations were initially thought to be limited to marine ecosystems, but it was later discovered to be well-suited for numerous habitats, including activated sludge of wastewater treatment systems, natural biological marine settings (such as the Seine River in France and beaches in Cape Cod), water circulation biofilters in aquarium tanks, terrestrial systems, fresh and salt water ecosystems, and hot springs. Nitrospira is a ubiquitous bacterium that plays a role in the nitrogen cycle by performing nitrite oxidation in the second step of nitrification. ''Nitrospira'' live in a wide array of environments including but not limited ...

Nitrospirota
Nitrospirota is a phylum of bacteria. It includes multiple genera, such as ''Nitrospira'', the largest. The first member of this phylum, ''Nitrospira marina'', was discovered in 1985. The second member, ''Nitrospira moscoviensis'', was discovered in 1995. Nitrospirota contains nitrifying taxa which oxidize nitrite to nitrate (nitrite-oxidizing bacteria, NOB) and commamox bacteria ''Nitrospira inopinata'' discovered in 2015 and cultivated in 2017. Phylogeny Taxonomy The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LSPN) and the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). * Phylum "Nitrospirota" Garrity & Holt 2021 ** Class " Leptospirillia" *** Order " Leptospirillales" **** Family " Leptospirillaceae" Cavalier-Smith 2020 ***** Genus '' Leptospirillum'' Markosyan 1972 ex Hippe 2000 ****** Species "'' L. ferrodiazotrophum''" Tyson et al. 2005 ****** Species '' L. ferriphilum'' Coram & Rawlings 2002 ****** Speci ...
