Cytophaga
Cytophaga is a genus of Gram-negative, gliding, rod-shaped bacteria. This bacterium is commonly found in soil, and rapidly digests crystalline cellulose. C. hutchinsonii is able to use its gliding motility to move quickly over surfaces. Although the mechanism for this is not known, there is a belief that the flagellum is not used.
Cytophagaceae
Cytophagaceae is a family of bacteria.
Cytophagales
Cytophagales is an order of non-spore forming, rod-shaped, Gram-negative bacteria that move through a gliding or flexing motion. These chemoorganotrophs are important remineralizers of organic materials into micronutrients. They are widely dispersed in the environment, found in ecosystems including soil, freshwater, seawater and sea ice. Cytophagales is included in the Bacteroidota phylum.
Flexibacter
Flexibacter is a genus of bacteria consisting of some seventeen strains (or species), known for their yellow hue.

Runella
Runella is a Gram-negative, aerobic and non-motile bacterial genus from the family Spirosomataceae.
Hymenobacter
Hymenobacter is a Gram-negative and non-motile bacterial genus from the family Hymenobacteraceae.
