Abstract
Summary The genera Planctomyces and Pirella are assigned to a new family Planctomycetaceae . Members of this family are characterized by a unique morphology, the formation of buds, and a proteinaceous cell wall. Comparative 16S rRNA oligonucleotide cataloguing has shown this family to be a coherent taxon. The branching point of the Planctomyces — Pirella line of descent within the phylogenetic tree of eubacteria is so deep than an order Planctomycetales is described to harbor Planctomycetaceae .
