Doesn't this species have a Linnaean binominal name? Steinbach (fka Caesarion) 23:05, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Bacillus stearothermophilus!!!!!!!!!!!!

As far as I could find out there is yet no Linnaean binominal name for this species. This may take some time, probably until at least a part of the genome has been sequenced. However, it would be more than a big surprise if this organism would bee related to the Bacilli, since the upper limit for the growth of these organisms is much lower (typically around 75 to 80 °C). The organism was classified as a member of the Archaea based on sequences of the rDNA. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.83.169.196 (talk) 07:06, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Just wondering if the term bacteriostatic is correctly applied to an archaeon? CK4231 00:00, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
