In this review, the history of the classification of the family Halobacteriaceae, the extremely halophilic aerobic Archaea, is reviewed with some emphasis on the recently described new genera Halobaculum, Halorubrum, Natrialba, Natronomonas, and "Haloterrigena." Speculation is made about the evolutionary relationship between members of the Halobacteriaceae and the extremely halophilic, anaerobic methanogens of the genera Methanohalobium and Methanohalophilus. Efforts to find missing links between the two groups are also reviewed.
在本综述中，我们回顾了嗜盐需氧古菌盐杆菌科的分类历史，重点介绍了最近描述的新属盐杆状菌属、嗜盐红菌属、盐碱红菌属、嗜盐碱单胞菌属和“嗜盐土生菌属”。文中还推测了盐杆菌科成员与嗜盐厌氧产甲烷菌属（嗜盐甲烷杆菌属和嗜盐嗜甲烷菌属）之间的进化关系。同时，也回顾了寻找这两类菌之间缺失环节的研究工作。
