Nitrosotenuis is a genus of ammonia-oxidizing archaea in the phylum Thaumarchaeota, comprising species that perform nitrification in diverse environments. Members have been isolated from warm groundwater and other habitats, expanding our understanding of archaeal ammonia oxidizers beyond marine and soil environments. Their chemolithoautotrophic metabolism contributes significantly to the global nitrogen cycle.
