Pictures of two newly discovered anaerobic and thermophilic bacteria from the mud volcanoes.

: A newly discovered microbe from the mud volcanoes – a sulfur reducing, highly salt tolerant thermophile (grows at 75 C). 1000X magnification.

: This new species of Thermotoga is also from the mud volcanoes, which are ejecting fluids from the deep hot biosphere, giving us a view into this extreme envrionment.

: More cells of this new Thermotoga species, which has an unusually long “toga” (sheath). Each toga contains 2-3 or more cells, and while this species also grows at 75 C, it is salt-sensitive.
