Organisms common to both sites include Thermocrinis, Pyrobaculum, and Caldipriscus (Pyropristinus) (hatched). Other populations (clockwise, in order of abundance) include Thermodesulfobacteria and 2 members of the Desulfurococcales at Conch Spring (yellow patterns), and Thermoproauctor, Calescibacterium (Calescamantes), Armatimonadota T1, Calditenuis aerorhuemensis 59, Acidilobaceae, Armatimonadota T2, Thermoflexus, and several others <2% at Octopus Spring (blue patterns) (Table 2 and Supplementary Table 1 show complete list of phylotypes). Abundances were calculated based on the fraction of mapped reads from random metagenome sequence (CheckM61). Taxonomic references are based on nucleotide identity (>95%) at either the phylum, order, family, or genus/species level. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
