Aphanocapsa sideroderma es una cianobacteria unicelular que forma agregados coloniales en vainas gelatinosas con capas externas incrustadas de hierro. Habita ambientes de agua dulce ricos en hierro, incluidos manantiales, arroyos y humedales. Esta bacteria fotosintética produce energía mediante fotosíntesis oxigénica y contribuye a la formación de biopelículas en sustratos ricos en hierro.
