Terrabacter aeriphilus is a species of Gram-positive, nonmotile, non-endosporeforming bacteria. Cells are either rods or coccoid. It was initially isolated from an air sample in Taean County, South Korea . The species was first described in 2010, and its name is derived from Latin aer (air), and Greek philos (loving).[1]
The optimum growth temperature for T. aeriphilus is 30 °C and can grow in the 5-35 °C range. The optimum pH is 6.0-7.0, and can grow in pH 4.0-9.0.[1]
