Bacteria are the most abundant species on earth. Their total number cannot be exactly known, but estimate puts it at around 5 x 1030. There could be as many as one billion species. A link can be found below to the study and its results.

Bacteria are not a species of life. They are a domain, which is the broadest classification of life. The most abundant domain on Earth is certainly bacteria and the most abundant species on Earth is likely a particular species of bacteria.
