Aminomonas paucivorans is a species of mesophilic, anaerobic, amino-acid-degrading bacterium. It was first formally described in 1999. It was specifically isolated from an anaerobic lagoon, which was part of a Dairy Wastewater Treatment plant. The anaerobic conditions of the lagoon, along with the presence of various organic compounds, provides an ideal environment for it to thrive.[1]
