Taxonomy

As of 2022, there are 18 species validly published in the genus Natrinema.[1]

Natrinema is related to the genus Haloterrigena, established in 1999, resulting in confusion about taxon limits and several species apparently being assigned to the wrong genus.[3] Based on phylogenomic analysis, eight species from Haloterrigena as well as Halopiger salifodinae were transferred to Natrinema in 2022.[4]
