Vibrio aerogenes is a Gram-negative, curved rod-shaped marine bacterium capable of producing gas during fermentation. It inhabits warm coastal seawater and estuarine environments. This facultatively anaerobic chemoheterotroph degrades organic matter and participates in marine carbon cycling in shallow coastal zones.

Vibrio hyugaensis is a Gram-negative, curved rod bacterium first isolated from the coastal waters near Hyuga, Japan. It inhabits warm marine and estuarine environments of coastal East Asia. This chemoheterotrophic bacterium decomposes organic matter in seawater and marine sediments along temperate Pacific coastlines.
