The Aquificaephylum is a diverse collection of bacteria that live in harsh environmental settings.
There is currently no consensus regarding the taxonomy of genera within Aquificae.
Another claims that, in addition to genera within the Aquificaceae and Hydrogenothermaceae families, the following genera are incertae sedis (unclassified), but within Aquificae: Balnearium, Desulfurobacterium, EX-H1 group, and Thermovibrio.

Ionizing radiation is radiation in which an individual particle (for example, a photon, electron, or helium nucleus) carries enough energy to ionize an atom or molecule (that is, to completely remove an electron from its orbit).
Signature sequences in diverse proteins provide evidence for the late divergence of the order Aquificales.
Molecular signatures in protein sequences that are characteristics of the phylumAquificae.
Thermovibrio ruber gen. nov., sp nov., an extremely thermophilic, chemolithoautotrophic, nitrate-reducing bacterium that forms a deep branch within the phylumAquificae.
