Janibacter anophelis is a species of Gram positive, strictly aerobic, bacterium. The species was initially isolated from the midgut of a Anopheles arabiensis mosquito. The species was first described in 2006, and the species name is derived from the mosquito genus Anopheles.[1]
The optimum growth temperature for J. anophelis is 35 °C (95 °F), and can grow in the 20–40 °C (68–104 °F) range.[1]
