Roseomonas arcticisoli
Roseomonas arcticisoli is a species of Gram negative, strictly aerobic, coccobacilli-shaped, light red-colored bacteria. It was first isolated from tundra soil near Ny-Ålesund in Svalbard, Norway.

"Roseomonas arctica" was isolated from the same region, but "R. arcticsoli" is more closely related to "R. wooponensis" than to "R. arctica." The optimum growth temperature for "R. arcticisoli" is 25-30 °C, but can grow in the 10-37 °C range. The optimum pH 8.0, and can grow in pH 5.0-9.0
