Oceanobacillus iheyensis is a bacterium, the type species of its genus. It is a deep-sea species, having been isolated from a depth of 1,050 metres (3,440 ft), and is extremely halotolerant and alkaliphilic. Its type strain is HTE831 (JCM 11309T, DSM 14371T).[1] Oceanobacillus iheyensis HTE831 is an alkaliphilic and extremely halotolerant Bacillus-related species isolated from deep-sea sediment.[2]
