Archaea bacteria are extremophiles living in harsh environments, such as hot springs and salt lakes, since they have been found in a broad range of habitats, including soils, oceans, marshlands and the human colon so they are ubiquitous. They were also found in a diverse range of highly saline, acidic, and anaerobic environments. Examples of archaebacteria include the halophiles, the methanogens and the thermophiles.

One characteristic they all have in common is the ability to thrive in extreme environmental conditions that existed several billion years ago. The halophiles are found in conditions where salt content is high.
