A Gram-staining-negative, moderately halophilic bacterium, designated strain AN9T, was isolated from a tidal flat of the Taean coast in South Korea. Cells were catalase- and oxidase-positive short rods that were motile by means of a single polar flagellum. Growth of strain AN9T was observed at 15–40 °C (optimum, 25–30 °C) and at pH 6.0–8.0 (optimum, pH 6.5–7.5). Strain AN9T contained ubiquinone Q-8 as the predominant isoprenoid quinone and C10 : 0 3-OH (31.7 %), C18 : 1 ω7c (24.8 %), C16 : 0 (14.7 %) and summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1 ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH, 10.72 %) as the major fatty acids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strain AN9T was 58 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain AN9T was related to members of the genus Marinobacterium and was related most closely to Marinobacterium litorale IMCC1877T (96.8 % similarity). On the basis of chemotaxonomic and molecular data, strain AN9T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Marinobacterium, for which the name Marinobacterium lutimaris sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is AN9T (=KACC 13703T =DSM 22012T).

A Gram-staining-negative, non-gliding, orange-pigmented bacterial strain, designated HMF2925T, was isolated from fresh water in Korea. The phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain HMF2925T formed a distinct lineage within the genus Emticicia. Strain HMF2925T was closely related to Emticicia oligotrophica DSM 17448T (95.5 %) and Emticicia ginsengisoli Gsoil 085T (94.1 %). The major fatty acids of strain HMF2925T were summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c), iso-C15 : 0, C16 : 1ω5c and C16 : 0.The major polar lipids of strain HMF2925T were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, an unidentified glycolipid, two unidentified amino lipids and three unidentified polar lipids. The DNA G+C content of strain HMF2925T was 36.5 mol%. On the basis of the evidence presented in this study, strain HMF2925T represents a novel species of the genus Emticicia, for which the name Emticicia aquatica sp. nov. is proposed.

A novel lactic acid-producing, Gram-stain-positive, catalase-negative and rod-shaped strain, designated as strain C06_No.73T, was isolated from a traditional Japanese fermented beverage called kôso. According to the results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain C06_No.73T belongs to the genus Lentilactobacillus . The closest type strain was Lentilactobacillus curieae CCTCC M 2011381T, with a sequence identity of 98.1 %. The identity values with other strains were all below 97 %. The isolate propagated under the conditions of 18–39 °C (optimum, 27 °C for 48 h incubation) and pH 4.0–7.0 (optimum, pH 6.5). The G+C content of its genomic DNA was determined to be 37.9 mol%. The main fatty acids were C16 : 0, C18 : 1 ω7c, C18 : 1 ω9c and C19 : 0 cyclopropane 11,12. The major polar lipid was identified as phosphatidylglycerol. No isoprenoid quinone was detected. The predominant cell-wall amino acids were lysine, alanine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid. Neither meso-diaminopimelic acid nor ornithine were detected. On the basis of this polyphasic taxonomic study, the isolate is concluded to represent a novel species, for which the name Lentilactobacillus kosonis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is C06_No.73T (=NBRC 111893T=BCRC 81282T).

A Gram-staining-positive, aerobic, motile bacterium, designated strain MJ3T, was isolated from myeolchi-jeot (anchovy jeotgal), a traditional fermented seafood in South Korea. Cells were non-endospore-forming cocci showing catalase- and oxidase-positive reactions. Growth of strain MJ3T was observed at 15–45 °C (optimum, 30 °C), at pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0–8.0) and in the presence of 1–24 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 10 % NaCl). Phylogenetic inference based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain MJ3T formed a tight phyletic lineage with members of the genus Salimicrobium . Strain MJ3T was related most closely to Salimicrobium salexigens 29CMIT, Salimicrobium album DSM 20748T, Salimicrobium flavidum ISL-25T, Salimicrobium luteum BY-5T and Salimicrobium halophilum DSM 4771T, with similarities of 98.8 %, 98.7 %, 98.6 %, 98.4 % and 98.3 %, respectively. However, the DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain MJ3T (KF732837) and S. salexigens DSM 22782T, S. album DSM 20748T, S. flavidum DSM 23127T, S. luteum KCTC 3989T and S. halophilum JCM 12305T were 60±5.4 %, 58.5±6.5 %, 43.6±5.5 %, 37.2±5.8 % and 16.7±0.2 %, respectively. Chemotaxonomic data (sole isoprenoid quinone, MK-7; major cell-wall type, meso-diaminopimelic acid; major cellular fatty acids, anteiso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0; major polar lipids, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol; DNA G+C content, 46.3 mol%) also supported the affiliation of strain MJ3T with the genus Salimicrobium . Therefore, strain MJ3T represents a novel species of the genus Salimicrobium , for which the name Salimicrobium jeotgali sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MJ3T ( = KACC 16972T = JCM 19758T).

A Gram-negative, motile and egg-shaped bacterium, strain TF-218T, was isolated from a tidal flat at Daepo Beach (Yellow Sea), Korea, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic analysis. Strain TF-218T grew optimally at pH 7.0–8.0 and 37 °C in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. It contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1 ω7c and 11-methyl C18 : 1 ω7c as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified lipids and an aminolipid. The DNA G+C content was 64.9 mol%. A neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain TF-218T is phylogenetically closely related to the genera Phaeobacter, Leisingera and Marinovum of the Alphaproteobacteria. The phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic similarities suggest that strain TF-218T represents a member of the genus Phaeobacter. DNA–DNA relatedness data and differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic distinctiveness, demonstrated that strain TF-218T differs from the recognized Phaeobacter species. On the basis of the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data, strain TF-218T represents a novel species of the genus Phaeobacter, for which the name Phaeobacter daeponensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is TF-218T (=KCTC 12794T=JCM 13606T).

The organism grew optimally in the presence of 10–15 % NaCl, at 37 °C and pH 8.0. The peptidoglycan of the cell wall consisted of meso-diaminopimelic acid, and the predominant menaquinone was MK-7. The major fatty acids of strain GrbiT were iso-C16 : 0 (36.4 %), anteiso-C15 : 0 (30.3 %) and iso-C14 : 0 (18.2 %). The polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and an unidentified glycolipid. The genomic DNA G+C content was 42.5 mol%. Strain GrbiT was most closely related to the type strain Lentibacillus kapialis JCM 12580T, with which it shared 97.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. The DNA–DNA hybridization value between strains GrbiT and L. kapialis JCM 12580T was 8 %. Based on phenotypic, genotypic and phylogenetic data, strain GrbiT should be classified as a novel species within the genus Lentibacillus, for which the name Lentibacillus jeotgali sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is GrbiT (=KCTC 13300T=JCM 15795T).

A Gram-staining-negative, strictly aerobic bacterial strain, designated SM-6T, was isolated from a sea tidal flat of the Dangjin bay, South Korea. Strain SM-6T was able to degrade a broad range of aliphatic hydrocarbons. Cells were catalase- and oxidase-positive and non-motile rods. Growth of strain SM-6T was observed at 10–37 °C (optimum, 20–25 °C), at pH 5.5–9.0 (optimum, pH 6.5–7.5) and in the presence of 0–10 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2–3 %). The only isoprenoid quinone detected was ubiquinone-8 (Q-8). C17: 1ω8c, C11: 0 3-OH, summed feature 3 (comprising C16: 1ω7c and/or C16: 1ω6c), C9: 0 3-OH and C10: 0 3-OH were observed as the major cellular fatty acids and phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and four unidentified lipids were detected as polar lipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 47.5 mol%. Strain SM-6T was most closely related to Pseudomaricurvus alkylphenolicus KU41GT (95.5 %), Maricurvus nonylphenolicus KU41ET (94.4 %) and Pseudoteredinibacter isoporae SW-11T (94.3 %), based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, and phylogenetic analyses showed that strain SM-6T formed a phyletic lineage distinct from the closely related genera. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and molecular features, strain SM-6T represents a novel genus and species of the order Alteromonadales in the class Gammaproteobacteria, for which name Aestuariicella hydrocarbonica gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SM-6T ( = KACC 18121T = JCM 30134T).
