s of nylon 6 manufacture. Species who are a part of the genus ''Flavobacterium'' are most likely found scattered along in nature. These microbes are mostly found in aquatic ecosystems and wet areas with freshwater or seawater. The ''Flavobacterium'' species are in most if not all cases found in some type of hypersaline water which is very halotolerant of the Antarctic species of .gondwanense and .salegens Which are the most important members of ''Flavobacteriaceae''.
