Descriptor Ectothiorhodospira
Scope note: Género de células vibrioides o baciliformes, móviles gracias a que poseen flagelos polares. Las membranas fotosintéticas internas forman estructuras laminares y contienen bacterioclorofila a ó b y carotenoides. El crecimiento se produce de forma fotoautotrófica en condiciones anaerobias.
