Thiomicrospira siberica is a species of obligately alkaliphilic and obligately chemolithoautotrophic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria. It was first isolated from soda lakes in northern Russia, hence the specific epithet.[2] In 2017, all 4 species of the genus Thioalkalimicrobium were reclassified to Thiomicrospira.[1]
