Methanogenium marinum is a psychrophilic, H2-using methanogen from Skan Bay, Alaska. [1] Its cells are highly irregular, non- motile coccoids (diameter, 1 to 1.2 μm), occurring singly. AK-1 is its type strain.

Morphology

The cells are highly irregular and coccoid in shape and non-motile, 1 to 1.2 μm in diameter. Like other species within the genus Methanogenium, they are strictly anaerobic. [2]
