  • Deinococcus wulumuqiensis[31]
  • Deinococcus xibeiensis[31]
  • Deinococcus xinjiangensis[32]
  • Deinococcus yavapaiensis[8]
  • Deinococcus yunweiensis[33]

These bacteria have thick cell walls that give them gram-positive stains, but they include a second membrane and so are closer in structure to those of gram-negative bacteria. They are also characterised by the presence of the carotenoid pigment Deinoxanthin that give them their pink color, and a high resistance to gamma and UV radiation and are usually isolated according to these two criteria.

The etymology is:

Greek adjective deinos (δεινός), dreadful, strange; Latin neuter gender noun bacterium, rod, New Latin neuter gender noun Deinobacterium, an unusual bacterium.[34]
