    • A. aquimarinus[3]
    • A. lectus (Nedashkovskaya et al. 2004, (Type species of the genus).; Latin masculine gender adjective lectus, chosen, selected, referring to a bacterium that forms select, beautiful colonies.)[4]
    • A. marinivivus[3]
    • A. mikhailovii (Nedashkovskaya et al. 2007, ; Neo-Latin masculine gender genitive case noun mikhailovii, of Mikhailov, in honour of Valery V. Mikhailov, a Russian microbiologist, for his contributions to the development of marine microbiology.)[5]
