Hydrogenobacter acidophilus (high-dro-jen-owe-back-ter ass-sid-off-ill-us) is found at some of the hottest regions, often above 60 degrees C. In nature, it takes the forms of filaments which collect together and are visible with the naked eye as white wispy threads. The whiteness in part is due to the inclusion of crystallized sulphur. In culture tends to form curving rods - as seen here. Phase contrast. Material from Dragon Creek, a thermal site in Yellowstone National Park, photograph by Jessie Cristiansen and David Patterson.

In nature, it takes the forms of filaments which collect together and are visible with the naked eye as white wispy threads. The whiteness in part is due to the inclusion of crystallized sulphur, seen here with associated filaments. In culture tends to form curving rods. Careful scrutiny shows that the bacterial cells have denser inclusions. Phase contrast.

In nature, it takes the forms of filaments which collect together and are visible with the naked eye as white wispy threads. The whiteness in part is due to the inclusion of crystallized sulphur,. The bacteria form intimate association with the sulphur,, and a number of rod shaped cells can be seen adhering to it.

Hydrogenobaculum is a thermophilic archaebacterium that forms long, creamy streamers in the 70 degrees C, acidic water of Nymph Creek.

Hydrogenobaculum, with inorganic material (mostly sulfur) deposited around the filaments.

Hydrogenobaculum forms thin white filaments at Mammoth Springs.

Sulfur deposits can be seen among the filaments formed by Hydrogenobaculum.

Hydrogenobaculum usually is found in the form of filaments, but short motile rods may occur.
