Enhygromyxa salina is a species of marine myxobacteria. Like other members of this order, E. salina is a rod-shaped Gram-negative bacterium that can move by gliding and can form aggregates of cells called fruiting bodies. E. salina is slightly halophilic (salt-tolerant) and can grow at lower temperatures than other marine myxobacteria. Several novel secondary metabolites have been identified in the species, including unusual sterols (which are rarely produced by prokaryotes at all). The species was first described in 2003, based on six strains isolated from samples collected from the coastlines of Japan.
