Sutcliffiella halmapala is a species of Gram-positive, rod-shaped, endospore-forming bacterium in the family Bacillaceae. It is alkalitolerant, with optimal growth around pH 8, and was originally described in 1995 as Bacillus halmapalus.[1] The specific epithet halmapala means "sensitive to brine".[2] The type strain is PN-118T (= DSM 8723T = ATCC 700165T = JCM 12302T).[2]
In 2020, the species was transferred to the genus Sutcliffiella as Sutcliffiella halmapala on the basis of phylogenomic and comparative genomic analyses.[3]
