Exiguobacterium antarcticum is a psychrotolerant Gram-positive bacterium isolated from Antarctic environments, capable of growing at temperatures near freezing. It inhabits cold Antarctic soils, sediments, and ice-associated environments. This species is of scientific interest as a model organism for understanding cold-adaptation in bacteria and producing cold-active enzymes with biotechnological applications.

Exiguobacterium indicum is a Gram-positive, psychrotolerant bacterium in the family Bacillaceae, isolated from cold Himalayan glacial environments in India. Its ability to grow at low temperatures makes it of interest for cold-adapted microbial research.
