Acinetobacter nectaris

Acinetobacter nectaris is a Gram-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, strictly aerobic nonmotile bacterium from the genus Acinetobacter isolated from floral nectar pollinated by Mediterranean insects in the Doñana National Park in the Huelva Province in Spain.[3][4][5] Bacterial communities, including microbes identified as A. nectaris are closely associated with plant communities; other strains of bacteria (Gluconoacetobacter, Erwinia and Rhizobium) have been found in environments that mother bees visit.[6] This bacterium was first characterized in 2013.[3]
