Sporosarcina aquimarina is a Gram-positive, endospore-forming bacterium in the family Planococcaceae, isolated from marine coastal environments. It forms characteristic tetrad or sarcinal clusters of cocci and can produce heat-resistant endospores allowing survival under environmental stress. Members of Sporosarcina have attracted interest for their ability to induce calcium carbonate precipitation, with applications in biocementation.

Sporosarcina soli is a Gram-positive, endospore-forming bacterium found in soil environments, as its species epithet suggests. Cells are characteristically coccoid and may form packet-like arrangements. It is a chemoheterotroph that decomposes organic matter in terrestrial soils across various geographic regions.
