Thermoplasmatota is a phylum of Archaea.[1][2] It is among six other phyla validly published according to the Bacteriological Code. These Archaea can live in acidic environments[3] and have also been found in the South China Sea and Mediterranean grassland soil.[4]

Phylogeny

The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN)[1] and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).[2]
