Notes: A new type of bacterium “Candidatus Ovobacter propellens” is described. It is a large ovoid species with a number of unusual features including special intracellular membrane systems and a huge flagellar tuft consisting of about 400 flagella. “Ovobacter” lives in oxygen gradients in the surface layer of sulphidic marine sediments at an O2-tension of about 0.5% atmospheric saturation. It swims continuously and very fast (up to 1 mm s−1). Its mode of swimming and its chemosensory behaviour towards O2 are described in detail.
