Aestuariibacter is a genus in the class Gammaproteobacteria (Bacteria), composed of four species, namely A. aggregatus, A. halophilus, A. litoralis and the type species A. salexigens.[1] These are strictly aerobic marine rod-shaped bacteria.[2] They share many traits with the sister genus Alteromonas, the type genus of the family (Alteromonadaceae) and order (Alteromonadales).
