Thiomargarita is a genus (family Thiotrichaceae) which includes the vacuolatesulfur bacteria species Thiomargarita namibiensis, Candidatus Thiomargarita nelsonii, and Ca. Thiomargarita joergensii.[4] In 2022, scientists working in a Caribbean mangrove discovered an extremely large member of the genus, provisionally named Ca.T. magnifica, whose cells are easily visible to the naked eye at up to 2 centimetres (0.79 in) long.[5]
