Sphingopyxis ginsengisoli is a gram-negative bacterium in the family Sphingomonadaceae, first isolated from ginseng field soil in South Korea. It is an aerobic organism adapted to plant-associated soil environments. Its conservation status is not evaluated.

Sphingopyxis granuli is a Gram-negative alphaproteobacterium in the family Sphingomonadaceae, characterized by its yellow-pigmented colonies and the presence of sphingolipids in its membrane—a trait shared across the family. It was isolated from granule-associated material and is aerobic, rod-shaped, and motile. Sphingopyxis species are common in soils, freshwater, and plant-associated environments.
