Nitrosopelagicus brevis es un pequeno taumarqueon oxidador de amoniaco aerobio perteneciente al abundante grupo arqueal marino Nitrososphaeria. Habita el oceano abierto, particularmente la zona fotica pobre en nutrientes de los giros oceanicos tropicales y subtropicales. Este organismo quimiolitoautotrofo oxida el amoniaco a nitrito y desempena un papel fundamental en el ciclo del nitrogeno marino.
