Alcanivorax dieselolei is a species in the genus Alcanivorax. Native to Asia, inhabiting ecosystems characteristic of the region.

Alcanivorax venustensis is a marine gammaproteobacterium in the family Alcanivoraceae, specialized in degrading aliphatic hydrocarbons as a primary carbon and energy source. It is typically rare in unpolluted seawater but becomes highly enriched in oil-contaminated marine environments, playing a key role in natural bioremediation of petroleum spills. Like other Alcanivorax species, it has evolved extensive alkane hydroxylase systems for hydrocarbon degradation.
