Haloterrigena thermotolerans is an extremely halophilic and thermotolerant archaeon capable of growth at both high salt concentrations and elevated temperatures. It inhabits saline, warm terrestrial environments including salt crusts, saline springs, and thermally influenced hypersaline habitats. This aerobic chemoheterotroph is adapted to the dual stresses of high salinity and heat.
