Bacillus mojavensis is a species of bacterium in the genus Bacillus. It was first described in 1994 from strains isolated from desert soil, and the specific epithet mojavensis means "pertaining to the Mojave Desert".[1] Bacillus axarquiensis and Bacillus malacitensis were formerly regarded as later heterotypic synonyms of B. mojavensis, but subsequent genomic analysis showed that they are distinct from it.[2] Both names are now treated as heterotypic synonyms of Bacillus halotolerans.[3]
