Dehalogenimonas is a genus in the phylum Chloroflexota ( Bacteria). [1] Members of the genus Dehalogenimonas can be referred to as dehalogenimonads (viz. Trivialisation of names).
The name Dehalogenimonas derives from:
Latin prep. de, away, off;
Neo-Latin noun halogenum, halogen;
Latin
feminine gender noun
monas (μονάς), unit,
monad;
Neo-Latin
feminine gender noun Dehalogenimonas, dehalogenating monad, reflecting the ability of these bacteria to dehalogenate chlorinated alkanes.
[1]
The type species of the genus is D. lykanthroporepellens [1] (Moe et al. 2009). The species epithet derives from the Greek noun lykanthropos (λυκάνθρωπος), werewolf; Latin participle adjective repellens, repelling; Neo-Latin participle adjective lykanthroporepellens, repelling `werewolves, because compounds exhibiting a pungent garlic aroma are produced when these organisms grow in the presence of 1,2,3-trichloropropane as an electron acceptor and sulfide as a reducing agent, garlic being said to repel werewolves in some fiction literature.

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) [3]
