Oceanospirillales 
Scientific classification Kingdom: Bacteria Phylum: Proteobacteria Class: Gammaproteobacteria Order: Oceanospirillales Families The Oceanospirillales are an order of Proteobacteria, with two families [1].
One strain of Oceanospirillales is an endosymbiont of the Osedax worms.[2] They are not present in Osedax oocytes so they are acquired later on.[3]
