A Gram-stain-negative and facultatively anaerobic bacterium, SY21T, was isolated from marine sediments of the coastal area in Weihai, China (122° 0′ 37″ E 37° 31′ 33″ N). Cells of strain SY21T were 0.3–0.5 μm wide and 1.5–2.5 μm long, catalase- and oxidase-positive. Colonies on 2216E agar were transparent, beige- to pale-brown-pigmented, and approximately 0.5 mm in diameter. Growth occurred optimally at 33–37 °C, pH 7.0–7.5 and in the presence of 2–3 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene indicated that strain SY21T was a member of the genus Mariniphaga within the family Prolixibacteraceae. The closest described neighbour in terms of 16S rRNA gene sequences identity was Mariniphaga anaerophila Fu11-5T (94.7 %). The major respiratory quinone of strain SY21T was MK-7, and the dominant fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and anteiso-C15 : 0. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, aminolipid and an unidentified lipid, and the DNA G+C content was 37.9 mol%. The distinct phylogenetic position and phenotypic traits distinguished the novel isolate from M. anaerophila Fu11-5T. Phenotypic and genotypic analysis indicated that strain SY21T could be assigned to the genus Mariniphaga. The name Mariniphaga sediminis sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain SY21T ( = KCTC 42260T = MCCC 1H00107T).

Major Respiratory Quinone

A marine bacterium, DOKDO 007T, was isolated from the rhizosphere of the marine alga Ecklonia kurome collected from Dokdo Island, Korea, in October 2004. The strain produced orange-coloured colonies on marine agar 2216. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that the novel isolate belonged to the family Flavobacteriaceae and showed relatively high sequence similarities with members of the genus Muricauda (92.0–94.0 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on nearly complete 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the novel isolate shared a lineage with members of the genera Muricauda and Costertonia. Cells were aerobic, Gram-negative rods producing non-diffusible carotenoid pigments. In contrast to all other members of the family Flavobacteriaceae, cells of DOKDO 007T were motile by means of a polar flagellum. Optimal growth occurred in the presence of 3.5–4 % (w/v) sea salts (corresponding to 2.7–3.1 % NaCl), at pH 8 and at temperatures of 26–29 °C. The novel strain required Ca2+ ions in addition to NaCl for growth. The dominant fatty acids were iso-15 : 0, iso-15 : 1ω10c and 10-methyl-16 : 0. The major respiratory quinone was MK-6. The DNA G+C content was 56.3 mol%, an unusually high value for members of the family Flavobacteriaceae. On the basis of these polyphasic taxonomic data, strain DOKDO 007T should be classified as representing a new genus and novel species in the family Flavobacteriaceae, for which the name Flagellimonas eckloniae gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DOKDO 007T (=KCCM 42307T=JCM 13831T).

Two bacterial isolates from the surface water of a haloalkaline lake on the Mongolia Plateau, strains MIM18T and MIM19, were characterized; their morphological, physiological and chemotaxonomic characters, and phylogenetic position based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, were determined. The two strains were alkaliphilic, halotolerant, non-motile, aerobic, Gram-negative, orange-red, rod-shaped and oxidase-positive. Growth was observed in 0–5.5 % (w/v) NaCl, with optimum growth at 1 %. The temperature range for growth was 0–41 °C, with good growth at 28–37 °C and optimum growth at 30–33 °C. The DNA G+C content was 39.8–41.2 mol%. The strains contained menaquinone MK-7 as the major respiratory quinone and phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine as the major polar lipids. Predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0 (28.1–29.3 %), iso-C17 : 0 3-OH (14.6–18.8 %), C15 : 1ω6c (5.3–8.6 %), C14 : 0 2-OH and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH (5.4–6.1 %), and iso-C17 : 1ω9c and/or C16 : 0 10-methyl (5.0–6.8 %). 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that Belliella and Nitritalea of the family Cyclobacteriaceae were the closest related species with sequence similarities of 91.7–92.3 % and 88.2 %, respectively, with strains of these genera; other members of the Cyclobacteriaceae had sequence similarities lower than 88 %. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the strains formed a deep-rooted lineage distinct from the clades represented by the genera Belliella, Nitritalea, Indibacter, Aquiflexum, Echinicola, Litoribacter, Cyclobacterium and Algoriphagus. Based on the phenotypic and phylogenetic characteristics mentioned above, the two strains are representatives of a single novel species in a new genus; the name Mongoliitalea lutea gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed, with MIM18T ( = ACCC 05421T = KCTC 23224T) as the type strain.

An aerobic, Gram-stain-negative rod, designated strain A2P5T, was isolated from the Douro river, in Porto, Portugal. Cells were catalase- and oxidase-positive. Growth occurred at 15–30 °C, at pH 6–8 and in the presence of 1 % (w/v) NaCl. The major respiratory quinone was Q8, the genomic DNA had a G+C content of 47 ± 1 mol%, and phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol were amongst the major polar lipids. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain A2P5T was observed to be a member of the family Burkholderiaceae, but could not be identified as a member of any validly named genus. The low levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to other recognized taxa ( < 91 %), together with the comparative analysis of phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, supported the proposal of a novel species of a new genus within the family Burkholderiaceae. The name Hydromonas duriensis gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Hydromonas duriensis is A2P5T ( = LMG 28428T = CCUG 66137T).

Gliding Bacterium

A rod shaped, Gram-stain-negative, chemo-organotrophic, heterotrophic, strictly aerobic, non-gliding bacterium, designated strain PLRT, was isolated from faeces of the mollusc Aplysia punctata (Mollusca, Gastropoda) that had been fed with green algae belonging to the genus Ulva. The novel strain was able to degrade ulvan, a polysaccharide extracted from green algae (Chlorophyta, Ulvophyceae). The taxonomic position of strain PLRT was investigated by using a polyphasic approach. Strain PLRT was dark orange, oxidase-positive, catalase-positive and grew optimally at 25 °C, at pH 7.5 and in the presence of 2.5 % (w/v) NaCl with an oxidative metabolism using oxygen as the electron acceptor. Nitrate could not be used as the electron acceptor. Strain PLRT had a Chargaff’s coefficient (DNA G+C content) of 35.3 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on the sequence of the 16S rRNA gene placed the novel strain in the family Flavobacteriaceae (phylum ‘Bacteroidetes’), within a clade comprising Stenothermobacter spongiae, Nonlabens tegetincola, Sandarakinotalea sediminis, Persicivirga xylanidelens and Persicivirga dokdonensis. The closest neighbours of strain PLRT were P. xylanidelens and P. dokdonensis, sharing 95.2 and 95.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, respectively. Phylogenetic inference and differential phenotypic characteristics demonstrated that strain PLRT represents a novel species of the genus Persicivirga, for which the name Persicivirga ulvanivorans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is PLRT ( = CIP 110082T = DSM 22727T).
