Denitrification by extremely halophilic bacteria [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1985 Extremely halophilic bacteria were isolated from widely separated sites by anaerobic enrichment in the presence of nitrate. The anaerobic growth of several of these isolates was accompanied by the production of nitrate, nitrous oxide, and dinitrogen.

Box-shaped halophilic bacteria [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1982 Three morphologically similar strains of halophilic, box-shaped procaryotes have been isolated from brines collected in the Sinai, Baja California (Mexico), and southern California (United States). Although the isolates in their morphology resemble Walsby's square bacteria, which are a dominant morphological type in the Red Sea and Baja California ...
