They are distinguished from Bacilli by being obligate anaerobes, and do not appear to be a monophyletic group.
The primary pigment involved is bacteriochlorophyll g, which is unique to the group and absorbs at different frequencies than other photosynthetic pigments, giving the heliobacteria their own environmental niche.
The Clostridiales are an order of Clostridia Phyla/Divisions Actinobacteria Aquificae Bacteroidetes/Chlorobi Chlamydiae/Verrucomicrobia Chloroflexi Chrysiogenetes Cyanobacteria Deferribacteres Deinococcus-Thermus Dictyoglomi Fibrobacteres/Acidobacteria Firmicutes Fusobacteria Gemmatimonadetes Nitrospirae Omnibacteria Planctomycetes Proteobacteria Spirochaetes Thermodesulfobacteria Thermomicrobia Thermotogae Bacteria is also the fictional name of a warring nation under Benzino Napaloni as dictator, in the 1940 film The Great Dictator...

However, it is not unreasonable to think that they could have been transferred between Fusobacteria and typical Firmicutes (particularly clostridiales and streptococci), which share the mouth and dental plaque ecosystem [16].
If the gene order of a given gene cluster was not preserved in Firmicutes species but maintained in another procaryotic group, the genes were assigned as HGT from/to the group with the highest score (highest gene-order conservation).
If the order was preserved in at least one species from two or more groups of low-GC gram-positives (Clostridiales, Bacillales, Lactobacillales and Mollicutes) the cluster was assumed to be ancestral to the divergence of fusobacteria and Firmicutes, and consistent with the ribosomal phylogeny.

Bacterial composition in 16S rDNA clone libraries from proximal (solid bars) and distal (shaded bars) parts of the colon from an IL-2-deficient mouse.
Bars indicate the percentages of sequences from Bacteroidales, Clostridiales, Enterobacteriaceae, Desulfovibrio, and other bacteria in relation to total clones analyzed.
IL-2-deficient mice suffering from colitis harbored up to 50%
