| Comment | Capable of oxidizing C6 to C12 n-alkanes to CO2 coupled to sulfate reduction or syntrophic methane production with initial substrate activation via the fumarate addition pathway. Alkane-degrading, sulfate-reducing bacteria.
 Isolated from sludge collected from a naval, oily wastewater-storage facility at the US Navy Craney Island Fuel Depot in Portsmouth, VA, USA. [PMID: 17158970]
