Abstract: 

Cryp.to.spo.ran.gi.a.ce'ae. N.L. neut. n. Cryptosporangium, type genus of the family; suff. -aceae ending to denote a family; N.L. fem. pl. n. Cryptosporangiaceae, the Cryptosporangium family.

Actinobacteria / Actinobacteria / Frankiales / Cryptosporangiaceae

Phylogenetically, a member of the order “Frankiales”. The family contains the genera Cryptosporangium and Fodinicola. Although most members of the order “Frankiales” do not form both substrate and aerial mycelia, members of this family show these structures. Sporangiospores occur occasionaly. Motile or nonmotile. Cross-linkage of peptidoglycan is by the A type. The diagnostic diamino acids include meso-diaminopimelic acid. Each peptidoglycan is directly linked without interpeptide bridges, and the muramic acid in peptidoglycan is N-acetylated. Methyl 14-methylpentadecanoate (iso-C_16:0) is the prominent fatty acid, but C_17:1, 10-methyl C_17:0, and C_18:1 may also be present. Menaquinones MK-9(H₆), MK-9(H₄), and MK-9(H₈) are the predominant isoprenoid quinones, and MK-9(H₂) may also be present.

DNA G + C content (mol%): 65 and 76.

Type genus: Cryptosporangium Tamura Hayakawa and Hatano 1998, 1003^VP.
