A Gram-stain-positive, facultatively anaerobic, non-spore-forming, non-flagellated and rod-shaped or ovoid bacterial strain, designated BS-12MT, was isolated from a tidal flat sediment on the South Sea, South Korea. Strain BS-12MT grew optimally at 35 °C, at pH 7.0–8.0 and in the presence of 2.0 % (w/v) NaCl. The neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain BS-12MT fell within the cluster comprising the type strains of species of the genus Demequina, joining the type strain of Demequina aestuarii with which it shared the highest sequence similarity (98.6 %). It exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 96.1–97.9 % to the type strains of other species of the genus Demequina. The peptidoglycan type of strain BS-12MT was A4β based on l-Orn − l-Ser − d-Glu. Strain BS-12MT contained demethylmenaquinone-9(H4) as the major menaquinone and anteiso-C15:0 and C16:0 as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids of strain BS-12MT were phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositolmannoside. The DNA G+C content of strain BS-12MT was 70.7 mol% and its DNA–DNA relatedness values with the type strains of five phylogenetically related species of the genus Demequina were 15–34 %. Differential phenotypic properties, together with phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, revealed that strain BS-12MT is separate from other species of the genus Demequina. On the basis of the data presented, strain BS-12MT is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Demequina, for which the name Demequina activiva sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BS-12MT ( = KCTC 29674T = NBRC 110675T).

A Gram-variable, motile and rod-shaped bacterial strain, ASL-1T, was isolated from a marine saltern located on the coast of the Yellow Sea, Korea. A neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain ASL-1T clustered with Jeotgalibacillus alimentarius YKJ-13T and that this cluster joined the clade comprising the type strains of two Marinibacillus species. Strain ASL-1T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 97.3 % to J. alimentarius YKJ-13T and 96.5 % to the type strains of Marinibacillus marinus and Marinibacillus campisalis. The chemotaxonomic properties of strain ASL-1T were similar to those of one or two of the genera Jeotgalibacillus and Marinibacillus. The peptidoglycan type was A1α linked directly through l-lysine as the diamino acid. Strain ASL-1T contained MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone with the presence of a significant amount of MK-8. The predominant fatty acid was anteiso-C15 : 0. The DNA G+C content was 42.9 mol%. Differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, revealed that strain ASL-1T could be differentiated from J. alimentarius and the two Marinibacillus species. On the basis of the data presented, strain ASL-1T represents a novel species within the genus Jeotgalibacillus, for which the name Jeotgalibacillus salarius sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ASL-1T (=KCTC 13257T=CCUG 56751T). It is also proposed that Marinibacillus marinus and Marinibacillus campisalis be reclassified as Jeotgalibacillus marinus comb. nov. (type strain 581T=DSM 1297T=ATCC 29841T=CCUG 28884T=CIP 103308T=LMG 6930T) and Jeotgalibacillus campisalis comb. nov. (type strain SF-57T=KCCM 41644T=JCM 11810T), respectively.
