Oceanospirillaceae is a family of Pseudomonadota. Most genera in this family live in environments with high concentrations of salt; they are halotolerant or halophilic.[4] They are marine, except Balneatrix which is found in fresh water and Venatorbacter, which is from terrestrial origin.[4]All members are strictly aerobic, except Neptunomonas which can perform fermentation reactions.[5]
