Phylum:	Crenarchaeota
Class:	Thermoprotei
Order:	Thermoproteales
Family:	Thermoproteaceae Zillig & Stetter 1982 emend. Burggraf et al. 1997
Genera
Caldivirga Itoh et al. 1999 Pyrobaculum Huber et al. 1988 Thermocladium Itoh et al. 1998 Thermoproteus Zillig and Stetter 1982 Vulcanisaeta Itoh et al. 2002

In taxonomy, the Thermoproteaceae are a family of the Thermoproteales.^[1]

Phylogeny

The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN) ^[2] and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)^[3] and the phylogeny is based on 16S rRNA-based LTP release 106 by The All-Species Living Tree Project ^[4]
