Novosphingobium soli is a gram-negative bacterium in the family Sphingomonadaceae, originally isolated from soil. Members of this genus are known for their ability to degrade aromatic compounds and are widely distributed in terrestrial environments. Its conservation status is not evaluated.

Sphingomonas lacus is a Gram-negative, yellow-pigmented aerobic rod first isolated from lake water, as its species name indicates. It inhabits freshwater lacustrine environments including lakes and ponds of temperate regions. This aerobic chemoheterotroph decomposes dissolved organic matter and aromatic compounds in freshwater habitats.
