<p><span>The </span><i>Aquificales</i><span> are widespread in marine and terrestrial hydrothermal environments. Here, we report the complete and draft genome sequences of six new members of the </span><i>Aquificales</i><span>: two marine species, </span><i>Persephonella marina</i><span> strain EX-H1 and </span><i>Hydrogenivirga</i><span> strain 128-5-R1 (from the East Pacific Rise, 9°50.3′N, 104°17.5′W, and the Eastern Lau Spreading Center, 176°11.5′W, 20°45.8′S, respectively), and four terrestrial isolates, </span><i>Sulfurihydrogenibium azorense</i><span> strain Az-Fu1, </span><i>Sulfurihydrogenibium yellowstonense</i><span> strain SS-5, and </span><i>Sulfurihydrogenibium</i><span> strain Y03AOP1 (from Furnas, Azores, Portugal, and Calcite Springs and Obsidian Pool in Yellowstone National Park, United States, respectively), and the only thermoacidophilic isolate, </span><i>Hydrogenobaculum</i><span> strain Y04AAS1 (from a stream adjacent to Obsidian Pool). Significant differences among the different species exist that include nitrogen metabolism, hydrogen utilization, chemotaxis, and signal transduction, providing insights into their ecological niche adaptations.</span></p>
