Deferrisoma is a genus of bacteria from the phylum Desulfobacterota.{{cite journal |title=Deferrisoma |website=www.uniprot.org |url=https://www.uniprot.org/taxonomy/1125862}} It is the only described member of the family Deferrisomataceae, order Deferrisomatales, and class Deferrisomatia. Known Deferrisoma species are thermophilic iron reducers that live on deep-sea and shallow hydrothermal vents.{{Cite journal |last=Slobodkina |first=G.
