Methyloferula stellata is a Gram-negative and non-motile bacteria from the genus of Methyloferula which has been isolated from acidic peat soil from Arkhangelsk in Russia.[1][3][4][5] In contrast to most known Methanotrophs Methyloferula stellata is an aerobic acidophilic methanotroph.[6] This makes it similar to Methylocella species, however it is unable to grow on multicarbon substrates.[6] It's genome was sequenced in March and April 2015.[6]
