Salt & Base X-Philes: Archaea
Archaeal Haloalkaliphiles & Haloalkalitolerant Archaea
Introduction
This group includes not only “simple” archaeal thermophiles, with an optimal growth temperature of anywhere from 50°C to 80°C (OGT=65°C±15°C), or 122°F to 176°F (149°F±27°F), but also archaeal hyperthermophiles, who have an optimal growth temperature over 80°C (OGT≥80°C) or 176°F (OGT≥176°F).

Here organisms are listed first by the upper end of their temperature range, then by OGT, then by the lower end of their temperature range, and for any organisms for which these properties are unknown, they will be listed in alphabetical order at the end.
