Elusimicrobia / Endomicrobia / Endomicrobiales / Endomicrobiaceae The family Endomicrobiaceae currently accommodates only a single species, the ultramicrobacterium Endomicrobium proavitum, and numerous clades of uncultured bacteria, which are found almost exclusively in the intestinal tract of insects (mostly termites and cockroaches). Many uncultured members of the genus Endomicrobium (Candidatus Endomicrobium) are host-specific symbionts of termite gut flagellates. DNA G + C content (mol%): 35.2?39.3 (genome sequence). Type genus: Endomicrobium Zheng, Dietrich, Radek and Brune 2018, 693VP (Effective publication: Zheng, Dietrich, Radek and Brune 2016, 199).
