Nitrosarchaeum limnae e um arqueo oxidador de amonia de agua doce do filo Thaumarchaeota, isolado dos sedimentos do lago Constanca. E quimiolitoautotrofo, obtendo energia da oxidacao da amonia a nitrito e contribuindo significativamente para o ciclo do nitrogenio em ecossistemas de agua doce. A sua descoberta destacou que os oxidadores de amonia taumarcaicos nao se restringem a ambientes marinhos.
