Novosphingobium chloroacetimidivorans is a Gram-negative aerobic rod with the capacity to degrade chloroacetamide herbicides. It has been isolated from herbicide-contaminated soils in agricultural regions. This specialized bacterium plays a role in the natural attenuation of chlorinated organic pollutants in agricultural soils.

Novosphingobium panipatense is a Gram-negative aerobic bacterium first isolated from oil-contaminated soils near Panipat, India, as its species name indicates. It inhabits oil-contaminated terrestrial environments of South Asia. This chemoheterotroph degrades petroleum hydrocarbons and aromatic compounds, making it relevant for bioremediation.
