Mangrovibacter is a genus in the order Enterobacterales. Members of the genus are Gram-stain-negative, facultatively anaerobic, nitrogen-fixing, and rod shaped. The name "Mangrovibacter" derives from:Neo-Latin noun "mangrovum", mangrove; Neo-Latin masculine gender noun, a rod; "bacter", nominally meaning "a rod", but in effect meaning a bacterium, rod; Neo-Latin masculine gender noun "Mangrovibacter", mangrove rod.
Species.
The genus contains three species, "M. yixingensis", "M. phragmitis", and "M. plantisponsor" 
"M. plantisponsor".
"M. plantisponsor" was the first of the three to be discovered (Rameshkumar "et al". 2010, (Type species of the genus).; Latin feminine gender noun "planta", plant; Latin masculine gender noun "sponsor", sponsor, guarantor; Neo-Latin masculine gender noun "plantisponsor", sponsor of plants, referring to the potentially plant-beneficial properties of the type strain.) 
"M. yixingensis".
"M. yixingensis" was the second species discovered after being isolated from farmland soil in Yixing, China in 2015. The species was identified via its 16S rRNA sequences, for which the samples were most related to those of "M. plantisponsor", placing it in the "Mangrovibacter" genus. "M. yixingensis" notably have peritrichous flagella, with them coming from all over the cell body.
"M. phragmitis".
"M. phragmitis" was the third and most recent species discovered and was isolated from the roots of tall reed ("Phragmites karka") in Odisha, India. The 16S rRNA sequences for the species were most related to "M. plantisponsor" and "M. yixingensis". "M. phragmitis" is slightly halophilic and grows optimally at 1% NaCl.
