Families

Desulfovibrionales are a taxonomic order of bacteria belonging to the phylum Thermodesulfobacteriota, with four families. They are Gram-negative. The majority are sulfate-reducing, with the exception of Lawsonia and Bilophila.[2] All members of this order are obligately anaerobic.[3] Most species are mesophilic, but some are moderate thermophiles.[2]
