Hydrogenobaculum Stöhr et al. 2001, gen. nov.
Type species: ¤ Hydrogenobaculum acidophilum (Shima and Suzuki 1993) Stöhr et al. 2001.
Etymology: N.L. n. hydrogenum (from Gr. n. hudôr, water; and Gr. v. gennaô, to produce), hydrogen (that which produces water, so called because it forms water when exposed to oxygen); L. neut. n. baculum, small rod; N.L. neut. n. Hydrogenobaculum, water-producing small rod.
