Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea is a marine bacterium which was isolated from seawater near Nice.[1]
History
[edit]Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea was originally isolated in 1976 and named Alteromonas luteo-violaceus.[1] However, this name was amended to Alteromonas luteoviolacea in 1982 to comply with standard bacterial naming.[1] In 1995, several species of Alteromonas, including A. luteoviolacea, were reclassified under the newly created genus Pseudoalteromonas based on ribosomal RNA comparisons.[2]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
