Anabaena circinalis is a species in the genus Anabaena. Native to Europe, inhabiting ecosystems characteristic of the region.
Anabaena thermophila is a thermophilic filamentous cyanobacterium capable of nitrogen fixation through specialised cells called heterocysts. It is adapted to warm aquatic environments, including hot springs and thermally influenced water bodies. Like other Anabaena species, it plays a significant role in nitrogen cycling in its habitat and can contribute to algal blooms under favorable conditions.
