Desulfurella amilsii is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, obligately anaerobic sulfur-reducing, acidotolerant, moderately thermophilic and motile bacterium from the genus of Desulfurella which has been isolated from river sediments from the Tinto River in Spain .[1][2][3][4] Desulfurella amilsii phenotypic characterization is also able to utilize thiosulfate as an electron acceptor and ferment pyruvate. In addition, it uses formate as an electron donor and can have a pH as low as 3. [5]
