Aestuariimicrobium is a singleton genus in the phylum Actinomycetota (Bacteria), whose first member, namely Aestuariimicrobium kwangyangense, was isolated from a diesel contaminated coastal site.[1] Like all Actinobacteria,[3] it is gram-positive and with a high CG content (69%). It is rod/coccoid shaped bacterium whose main quinone is menaquinone-7 (MK7).[1]
