Naxibacter haematophilus is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, oxidase-positive, and non-spore-forming bacterium which was isolated from clinical specimens and water samples.[3]

Etymology

Its specific name comes from the Greek haem (-atosa), which means "blood", and the Greek philos, which means "loving", because the strain was isolated from blood.[4][5]
