It is a strict psychrophile and a moderate piezophile, whose degree of piezophily is increased markedly when the temperature is raised to 10 °C. The piezophily of P. profunda is intermediate between that of the type species, Psychromonas antarctica, which is not piezophilic, and that of Psychromonas kaikoae, which is an obligate piezophile., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijs.0.02227-0
