		+	The most notable feature of ''H. sulfurfontis'' is that is is pleomorphic and shows multiple structural forms during its life cycle. "Rods, irregular cells and flattened disc shapes were observed using phase-contrast microscopy and SEM. Rod-shaped cells (single or in pairs) were observed more frequently during the exponential growth phase, whereas irregularly shaped cells were common during the stationary phase or from colonies on agar plates."

The Haloferax genus consists of six creditably published species and is characterized by a low obligatory salt-content as compared to other Halobacteria, although it is best suited to a salt content of 25% or above.
