A Gram-positive, non-motile and coccoid-, short rod- or rod-shaped bacterial strain, ISL-16T, was isolated from a marine solar saltern in Korea and its taxonomic position was investigated using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Strain ISL-16T grew optimally at pH 7.0–8.0, at 30 °C and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain ISL-16T joined the cluster comprising species of the genus Planococcus. Its 16S rRNA gene sequence contained the same signature nucleotides as those defined for the genus Planococcus. Strain ISL-16T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 96.9–98.2 % to the type strains of species of the genus Planococcus. Strain ISL-16T contained MK-8 and MK-7 as the predominant menaquinones and anteiso-C15 : 0, C16 : 1 ω7c alcohol and anteiso-C17 : 0 as the major fatty acids. The DNA G+C content was 48.3 mol%. DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain ISL-16T and the type strains of species of the genus Planococcus were 15–28 %. Differential phenotypic properties, together with its phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, enabled strain ISL-16T to be differentiated from recognized species of the genus Planococcus. On the basis of the data presented, strain ISL-16T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Planococcus, for which the name Planococcus salinarum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ISL-16T (=KCTC 13584T=CCUG 57753T). An emended description of the genus Planococcus is also given.

A Gram-negative, motile, rod-shaped, Marinobacter-like bacterial strain, ISL-40T, was isolated from a marine solar saltern of the Yellow Sea in Korea. The taxonomic position of the novel strain was investigated using a polyphasic approach. Strain ISL-40T grew optimally at pH 7.0–8.0 and at 30 °C. It contained Q-9 as the predominant ubiquinone. The major fatty acids were C16 : 0, C16 : 1 ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH and 10-methyl C16 : 0. The DNA G+C content was 58.1 mol%. A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain ISL-40T belongs to the genus Marinobacter. Strain ISL-40T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 93.5–96.4 % to the type strains of recognized Marinobacter species. The differential phenotypic properties and phylogenetic distinctiveness of strain ISL-40T revealed that it is separate from recognized Marinobacter species. On the basis of phenotypic, phylogenetic and genetic data, therefore, strain ISL-40T represents a novel species of the genus Marinobacter, for which the name Marinobacter salicampi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ISL-40T (=KCTC 12972T=CCUG 54357T).

A Gram-stain-positive, motile, rod-shaped bacterial strain, ISL-17T, was isolated from a marine solar saltern of the Yellow Sea, Korea, and its taxonomic position was investigated by means of a polyphasic study. Strain ISL-17T grew optimally at pH 8.5–9.0, at 37 °C and in the presence of approximately 10 % (w/v) NaCl. It contained meso-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid in the peptidoglycan, MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0 as the major fatty acids. The DNA G+C content was 48.1 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain ISL-17T fell within the genus Alkalibacillus, clustering with Alkalibacillus salilacus BH163T with a bootstrap resampling value of 100 %. Strain ISL-17T exhibited 98.2 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to A. salilacus BH163T and 95.8–96.5 % similarity to the type strains of the other Alkalibacillus species. The mean DNA–DNA relatedness value between strain ISL-17T and A. salilacus KCTC 3916T was 19 %. The phenotypic properties of strain ISL-17T, together with its phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, enable this strain to be differentiated from recognized Alkalibacillus species. On the basis of phenotypic, phylogenetic and genetic data, strain ISL-17T represents a novel species within the genus Alkalibacillus, for which the name Alkalibacillus flavidus sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is ISL-17T (=KCTC 13258T =CCUG 56753T).

Two halophilic archaeal strains, YC20T and XD15, were isolated from a marine solar saltern and an inland salt lake in China. Both had pleomorphic cells that lysed in distilled water, stained Gram-negative and formed red-pigmented colonies. They were neutrophilic, requiring at least 100 g NaCl l−1 and 0.5–95 g MgCl2 l−1 for growth at the optimum growth temperature of 37 °C. The major polar lipids of the two strains were phosphatidylglycerol (PG), phosphatidylglycerol phosphate methyl ester (PGP-Me), phosphatidylglycerol sulfate (PGS) and two major glycolipids chromatographically identical to sulfated mannosyl glucosyl diether (S-DGD-1) and mannosyl glucosyl diether (DGD-1), respectively. Trace amounts of two unidentified glycolipids were also detected. The 16S rRNA gene sequences of the two strains were 99.5 % identical and showed 94.0–95.9 % similarity to the most closely related members of the genus Halobellus of the family Halobacteriaceae . The rpoB′ gene sequence similarity between strains YC20T and XD15 was 98.2 % and these sequences showed 89.6–92.8 % similarity to those of the most closely related members of the genus Halobellus . The DNA G+C contents of strains YC20T and XD15 were 65.8 mol% and 65.4 mol%, respectively. The DNA–DNA hybridization value between strain YC20T and strain XD15 was 92 %, and the two strains showed low DNA–DNA relatedness to members of the genus Halobellus . The phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic properties suggest that strains YC20T and XD15 represent a novel species of the genus Halobellus , for which the name Halobellus inordinatus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YC20T ( = CGMCC 1.12120T = JCM 18361T) and the other strain is XD15 ( = CGMCC 1.12236 = JCM 18648).
