Elusimicrobia / Elusimicrobia / Elusimicrobiales / Elusimicrobiaceae The family Elusimicrobiaceae currently accommodates only a single species, the ultramicrobacterium Elusimicrobium minutum. It also comprises numerous clades of uncultured bacteria, which have been detected in 16S rRNA-based surveys and are exclusively found in intestinal habitats, ranging from the guts of termites, cockroaches, and beetle larvae to the mammalian intestinal tract.
