| Family Paenibacillaceae |
| Gram positive (or positive only in early stages of growth), rod shaped cells, mostly straight, 0.3-2.2 x 1.2-7 μm. Majority motile with lateral flagella. Heat-resistant endospores formed. Chemoorganotrophs; strict aerobes or facultative anaerobes. Some characters (like vegetative cell wall, glucose fermentation, growth temperature, etc.) are very variable. |

| Genus Paenibacillus Ash et al. 1994 |
NOTES According to Genersch et al. 2006, P. larvae subsp. pulvifaciens and P. larvae subsp. larvae are reclassified as a single species: P. larvae. According to Kwak et al. 2020, P. jamilae is a later heterotypic synonym of Paenibacillus polymyxa. According to SantAnna et al. (2017), Paenibacillus riograndensis is a later heterotypic synonym of Paenibacillus sonchi. |
