Acidocella is a genus in the phylum Proteobacteria (Bacteria).[1] Its members are acidophilic.

The name Acidocella derives from New Latin acidum (from Latin acidus, sour), an acid; Latin cella, a store-room, a chamber and, in biology, a cell; giving Acidocella, an acid (-requiring) cell.[2]
Species
The genus contains:[2]
- A. aluminiidurans Kimoto et al. 2010[3]
- A. aminolytica (Kishimoto et al. 1994) Kishimoto et al. 1996, , formerly a member of the genus Acidiphilium[4]
- A. facilis (Wichlacz et al. 1986) Kishimoto et al. 1996, type species of the genus, formerly a member of the genus Acidiphilium[4]
