A novel coccoid, anaerobic, Fe2+-oxidizing archaeum was isolated from a shallow submarine hydrothermal system at Vulcano, Italy. In addition to ferrous iron, H2 and sulfide served as electron donors. NO3- was used as electron acceptor. In the presence of H2, also S2O32- could serve as electron acceptor. The isolate was a neutrophilic hyperthermophile that grew between 65 degrees C and 95 degrees C. It represents a novel genus among the Archaeoglobales that we name Ferroglobus. The type species is Ferroglobus placidus (DSM 10642).
从意大利武尔卡诺岛的一个浅海海底热液系统中分离出一种新型的球状、厌氧、Fe2+氧化古菌。除了亚铁离子外，H2和硫化物也作为电子供体。NO3-用作电子受体。在有H2存在的情况下，S2O32-也可作为电子受体。该分离株是一种嗜中性嗜热菌，生长温度在65℃至95℃之间。它代表了古球菌目中的一个新属，我们将其命名为铁球属。模式种是平静铁球菌（DSM 10642）。
