Candidatus Arsenophonus arthropodicus is a Gram-negative and intracellular secondary (S) endosymbiont that belongs to the genus Arsenophonus.[1] This bacterium is found in the Hippoboscid louse fly, Pseudolynchia canariensis.[1] S-endosymbionts are commonly found in distinct tissues.[1] Strains of recovered Arsenophonus found in arthropods share 99% sequence identification in the 16S rRNA gene across all species.[1] Arsenophonus-host interactions involve parasitism and mutualism, including a popular mechanism of "male-killing" found commonly in a related species, Arsenophonus nasoniae.[2][3] This species is considered "Ca. A. arthropodicus" due it being as of yet uncultured.[4]
