Description:Chlorobium tepidum is a Gram-negative bacterium of the green-sulfur phylum originally isolated from high-sulfide hot springs in New Zealand. It is thermophile and grows optimally at 48 Celsius degrees. It use multiple types of bacteriochlorophylls and carotenoids in unique structures known as chlorosomes for light harvesting.
