Methanospirillum is a genus of microbes within the family Methanospirillaceae. All its species are methanogenic archaea. The cells are bar-shaped and form filaments. Most produce energy via the reduction of carbon dioxide with hydrogen, but some species can also use formate as a substrate. They are Gram-negative and move using archaella on the sides of the cells. They are strictly anaerobic, and they are found in wetland soil and anaerobic water treatment systems.{{cite book|author1=Aharon Oren|title=The Prokaryotes|publisher=Springer Berlin Heidelberg|pages=283–290|date=2014-10-10|isbn= 978-3-642-38953-5|doi= 10.1007/978-3-642-38954-2_316|chapter=The Family Methanospirillaceae}}
