A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming, non-flagellated and rod-shaped or ovoid bacterial strain, designated BG-MY13T, was isolated from a tidal flat sediment on the South Sea, South Korea. Strain BG-MY13T grew optimally at 30–35 °C, at pH 7.0–8.0 and in the presence of 2.0–3.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain BG-MY13T falls within the cluster comprising the type strains of species of the genus Gramella . Strain BG-MY13T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequ4ence similarity values of 96.9–97.8 % to the type strains of Gramella echinicola , Gramella gaetbulicola , Gramella portivictoriae and Gramella marina and of 94.6–96.5 % to the type strains of other species of the genus Gramella with validly published names. Strain BG-MY13T contained MK-6 as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine and one unidentified lipid. The DNA G+C content of strain BG-MY13T was 38.9 mol% and DNA–DNA relatedness values with the type strains of G. echinicola , G. gaetbulicola , G. portivictoriae and G. marina were 12–23 %. The differential phenotypic properties, together with phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, revealed that strain BG-MY13T is separated from other species of the genus Gramella . On the basis of the data presented, strain BG-MY13T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Gramella , for which the name Gramella aestuariivivens sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BG-MY13T ( = KCTC 42285T = NBRC 110677T).

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, aerobic, curved-to-spiral-rod-shaped bacterium, designated AH-MY2T, was isolated from a tidal flat on Aphae island in the sea to the south-west of South Korea, and its taxonomic position was investigated using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Strain AH-MY2T grew optimally at 30 °C, at pH 7.0–8.0 and in the presence of 2.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Neighbour-joining, maximum-likelihood and maximum-parsimony phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain AH-MY2T clustered with the type strain of Terasakiella pusilla and that this cluster joined the clade comprising the type strains of species of the genus Thalassospira . Strain AH-MY2T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 90.6 % to the type strain of Terasakiella pusilla and of less than 91.0 % to the type strains of other species with validly published names. Strain AH-MY2T contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1ω7c as the major fatty acid. The major polar lipids detected in strain AH-MY2T were phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified aminolipids and one unidentified glycolipid. The DNA G+C content of strain AH-MY2T was 56.0 mol%. The phylogenetic data and differential chemotaxonomic and other phenotypic properties revealed that strain AH-MY2T represented a novel genus and species within the family Rhodospirillaceae of the class Alphaproteobacteria , for which the name Aestuariispira insulae gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed.

Two Gram-stain-negative and non-flagellated bacteria, YSTF-M3T and YSTF-M6T, were isolated from a tidal flat from Yellow Sea, Republic of Korea, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. Neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strains YSTF-M3T and YSTF-M6T belong to the genera Kordia and Olleya of the family Flavobacteriaceae , respectively. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities between strain YSTF-M3T and the type strains of Kordia species and between strain YSTF-M6T and the type strains of Olleya species were 94.1–98.4 and 97.3–98.3 %, respectively. The ANI and dDDH values between genomic sequences of strain YSTF-M3T and the type strains of five Kordia species and between those of strain YSTF-M6T and the type strains of three Olleya species were in ranges of 77.0–83.2 and 20.7–27.1 % and 79.4–81.5 and 22.3–23.9 %, respectively. The DNA G+C contents of strain YSTF-M3T and YSTF-M6T from genomic sequences were 34.1 and 31.1 %, respectively. Both strains contained MK-6 as predominant menaquinone and phosphatidylethanolamine as only major phospholipid identified. Differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, revealed that strains YSTF-M3T and YSTF-M6T are separated from recognized species of the genera Kordia and Olleya , respectively. On the basis of the data presented, strains YSTF-M3T (=KACC 21639T=NBRC 114499T) and YSTF-M6T (=KACC 21640T=NBRC 114500T) are considered to represent novel species of the genera Kordia and Olleya , respectively, for which the names Kordia aestuariivivens sp. nov. and Olleya sediminilitoris sp. nov. are proposed.
