Sporosarcina saromensis is a Gram-positive, spore-forming, coccoid bacterium isolated from the saline Lake Saroma in Hokkaido, Japan. It is adapted to cold and moderately saline conditions typical of its original habitat. Like other Sporosarcina species, it can form resistant endospores and some strains exhibit carbonate precipitation activity, relevant to biomineralisation research.

Sporosarcina thermotolerans is a Gram-positive, spore-forming bacterium capable of surviving elevated temperatures, reflecting its thermotolerant nature. It has been isolated from various terrestrial environments including soil and sediment. This bacterium can form endospores that allow survival under environmental stress, and some strains exhibit the ability to precipitate calcium carbonate.
