Planctomycetaceae is the only family in the order Planctomycetales within the Bacteria. Species within this family are mostly spherical, inhabiting a vast array of aquatic environments with the majority being in marine ecosystems. Planctomycetaceae species are generally aerobic, but are uniquely classified by fatty acid synthesis and stalk-like formations.

Planctomycetaceae is the only family in the order Planctomycetales within the Bacteria. Species within this family are mostly spherical, inhabiting a vast array of aquatic environments with the majority being in marine ecosystems. Planctomycetaceae species are generally aerobic, but are uniquely classified by fatty acid synthesis and stalk-like formations.
== Morphology == When compared to other species of the order Planctomycetales, species of the Planctomycetaceae family have very few unique characteristics that can taxonomically distinguish them from other related families. Planctomycetaceae species typically form colonies of a pink or white hue. Their cell structure has been recorded to be spherical, but many species are elliptical or pear-shaped; all species range from 0.4 micrometers to 2.5 micrometers in size.
