This is a taxonomic list of domain Archaea.

Archaea is a domain of prokaryotes, single-celled, chemolithotrophies and extremophiles microorganims. This list show the taxonomy at genus level, based on Garrity et al. (2007) [1] and Euzéby (2008).[2]

Taxonomy

Taxonomic notes

Two other possible phyla are described in the literature, Korarchaeota and Nanoarchaeota, meantime its validities are questioned, not being in the last publication of the "Bergey's Manual of Systematic Biology" (2004/05). In 2008, a new phylum was proposed, Thaumarchaeota, to shelter mesophiles archeans.

Known only from gene sequences of rRNA 16S obtained from samples of high temperature hydrothermal fountains of the Yellowstone National Park. Analysis of the material suggests that does not belong to other principal groups of archeans, Crenarchaeota and Euryarchaeota, being of more ancient origin. Meantime, it is possible that the Korarchaeota is not a separate group, but simply an organism that have undergone rapid or unusual mutations of the gene rRNA 16S. [3] [4]

Phylum created in 2002 to harbour a new nanosized hyperthermophilic archaeon from a submarine hot vent, "Nanoarchaeum equitans", which relationships are uncertain. rRNA sequence comparisons with the others two phyla, reveals great difference between them. Other investigators, however, suggest that this archaea is related to Thermococcales, a order of the phylum Euryarchaeota. [5] [6] [7]

This phylum was newly-proposed based on phylogenetic data, like sequence of rRNA and the presence of a form of type I topoisomerase, that was previously thought to be unique to the eukaryotes. It harbour mesophilic archeans, what up to that time were grouped in the phylum Crenarchaeota. [8] [9] It contains two orders:[a]

Notes

^ These taxa are included in category “Candidatus”, that is not covered by the Rules of the Bacteriological Code. Consequently, the names included in this category cannot be validly published. [10]
