Acidiferrobacter is an acidophilic, thermotolerant, and facultatively anaerobic genus of bacteria with one known species (Acidiferrobacter thiooxydans).[2][1][3] This genera has been included in new order called Acidiferrobacterales in 2015.[4] A. thiooxydans has been isolated from refuse from a coal mine from Calloway County, Kentucky, in the United States.[5]
