Methanoplanus endosymbiosus

provided by wikipedia EN

Methanoplanus endosymbiosus is a species of archaeon, an endosymbiont of the marine sapropelic ciliate Metopus contortus. It is an irregular, disc-shaped bacterium with a diameter of 1.6–3.4 μms and type strain MC1.[1] Its 16S DNA was sequenced in 1994, eight years after the initial isolation, and it was found to share considerable similarity with that of Methanoplanus limicola.[2]
