 * for WWE3 we suggest the name from the Hebrew ‘katan’, which means ‘small’
 * for SR1 we suggest the name from the Latin ‘Abscondo’ meaning ‘hidden’, as in ‘shrouded’.

From Bacterial phyla
Termite Group 1 (from a Reticulitermes speratus termite gut, now Elusimicrobia)[33]

Since then several other candidate phyla have been identified:[8])

OP1, OP3, OP5 (now Caldiserica), OP8, OP9, OP10 (now Armatimonadetes), OP11 (obsidian pool, Yellowstone National Park) WS2, WS3, WS5, WS6 (Wurtsmith contaminated aquifer) SC3 and SC4 (from arid soil) vadinBE97 (now Lentisphaerae) NC10 (from flooded caves) BRC1 (from bulk soil and rice roots) ABY1 (from sediment) Guyamas1 (from hydrothermal vents) GN01, GN02, GN04 (from a Guerrero Negro hypersaline microbial mat) NKB19 (from activated sludge) SBR1093 (from activated sludge) TM6 and TM7 (Torf, Mittlere Schicht ["peat, middle layer"])

Since then a candidate phylum called Poribacteria was discovered, living in symbiosis with sponges and extensively studied.[34] (Note: the divergence of the major bacterial lineages predates sponges) Another candidate phylum, called Tectomicrobia, was also found living in symbiosis with sponges.[35] And Nitrospina gracilis, which had long eluded phylogenetic placement, was proposed to belong to a new phylum, Nitrospinae.[36]

Other candidate phyla that have been the center of some studies are TM7,[31] the genomes of organisms of which have even been sequenced (draft),[37] WS6[38] and Marine Group A.[8]

Two species of the candidate phylum OP10, which is now called Armatimonadetes, where recently cultured: Armatimonas rosea isolated from the rhizoplane of a reed in a lake in Japan[39] and Chthonomonas calidirosea from an isolate from geothermally heated soil at Hell's Gate, Tikitere, New Zealand.[40]

One species, Caldisericum exile, of the candidate phylum OP5 was cultured, leading to it being named Caldiserica.[41]

The candidate phylum VadinBE97 is now known as Lentisphaerae after Lentisphaera araneosa and Victivallis vadensis were cultured.[42]

More recently several candidate phyla have been given provisional names despite the fact that they have no cultured representatives:[43]
