Bacteriovoracaceae is a family of gram-negative, comma-shaped bacteria. All members have a two-part life cycle consisting of a free-living motile "attack phase" and a "predatory phase" that lives in the periplasm of other gram-negative bacteria. Bacteriovoracaceae are found in freshwater and in the soil.^[2]
