A taxonomic study was carried out on strain P31T, which was isolated from a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)-degrading consortium enriched with deep-sea water of the Indian Ocean. The isolate was Gram-reaction-negative, rod-shaped, motile by means of a polar flagellum and incapable of reducing nitrate to nitrite. Growth was observed at 0.5–8 % NaCl and at 10–41 °C. Strain P31T was unable to degrade Tween 80 or gelatin. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone 11 (Q-11). The dominant fatty acids were C18 : 1 ω7c (39.79 %), 11-methyl C18 : 1 ω7c (17.84 %), C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c (12.05 %) and C18 : 0 (6.09 %). The G+C content of the chromosomal DNA was 62.1 mol%. A phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain P31T and Parvibaculum lavamentivorans DS-1T formed a distinct lineage in the family Phyllobacteriaceae; these two strains showed 95.7 % sequence similarity, while similarities between P31T and other members of the genus Parvibaculum were below 93 %. Based on the genotypic and phenotypic data, strain P31T represents a novel species of the genus Parvibaculum, for which the name Parvibaculum indicum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is P31T (=CCTCC AB 208230T =LMG 24712T =MCCC 1A01132T).

A taxonomic study was carried out on strain 22II14-10F7T, which was isolated from the deep-sea water of the Atlantic Ocean with oil-degrading enrichment. The bacterium was Gram-stain-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive and rod-shaped. Growth was observed at salinities from 0.5 to 15 % and at temperatures from 4 to 37 °C; it was unable to hydrolyse Tween 40, 80 or gelatin. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain 22II14-10F7T represented a member of the genus Zunongwangia , with highest sequence similarity of 97.3 % to Zunongwangia profunda SM-A87T, while the similarities to other species were all below 94.0 %. The DNA–DNA hybridization estimate of the similarity between strain 22II14-10F7T and Z. profunda SM-A87T was 27.20±2.43 % according to their genome sequences. The principal fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0 , iso-C15 : 1 G, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH, summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c/ω6c) and summed feature 9 (iso-C17 : 1ω9c or C16 : 0 10-methyl). The G+C content of the chromosomal DNA was 35.5 mol%. The major respiratory quinone was determined to be MK-6. Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), two aminolipids (AL1 and AL2) and five unknown lipids (L1–L5) were present. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data show that strain 22II14-10F7T represents a novel species of the genus Zunongwangia , for which the name Zunongwangia atlantica sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain 22II14-10F7T ( = CGMCC1.12470T = LMG 27421T = MCCC 1A06481T).

A Gram-staining-negative, aerobic, non-motile, coccus-shaped bacterium, designated SAORIC-696T, was isolated from deep-sea water at a depth of 1700 m in the western North Pacific Ocean. Optimal growth of strain SAORIC-696T was observed at 15 °C, pH 7.0 and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. Strain SAORIC-696T formed a robust phylogenetic clade with members of the genus Lentisphaera. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity showed that strain SAORIC-696T was most closely related to Lentisphaera marina (98.0 % similarity) and Lentisphaera araneosa (97.3 %). The DNA–DNA relatedness between SAORIC-696T and two species of the genus Lentisphaera was only 27–42 %. The DNA G+C content of strain SAORIC-696T was 43.1 mol% and predominant cellular fatty acids were C16 : 1ω9c (36.8 %), C14 : 0 (22.5 %) and C14 : 0 3-OH and/or iso-C16 : 1 I (10.8 %). Strain SAORIC-696T contained MK-7 as the only respiratory quinone.

A taxonomic study was carried out on a novel bacterial strain, designated B108T, which was isolated from a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)-degrading consortium, enriched from deep-sea water of the Indian Ocean. The isolate was Gram-reaction-negative, rod-shaped and non-motile. Growth of strain B108T was observed in 1–15 % (w/v) NaCl and at 10–39 °C and it was unable to degrade Tween 80 or gelatin. 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons showed that strain B108T was most closely related to Roseovarius halotolerans HJ50T (97.1 % sequence similarity), followed by Roseovarius pacificus 81-2T (96.6 %) and Roseovarius aestuarii SMK-122T (95.2 %); other species shared <95.0 % sequence similarity. DNA–DNA hybridization tests showed that strain B108T had a low DNA–DNA relatedness to R. halotolerans HJ50T and R. pacificus 81-2T (48±4 % and 44±5 %, respectively). The predominant fatty acids were C16 : 0, C16 : 0 2-OH, summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω7c/ω6c) and C19 : 0ω8c cyclo, which accounted for 84.2 % of the total cellular fatty acids. The G+C content of the chromosomal DNA was 63.6 mol%. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone 10 (Q10). Phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and some unidentified compounds were detected. These characteristics were in good agreement with those of members of the genus Roseovarius. The pufLM gene was also detected. According to its morphology, physiology, fatty acid composition and phylogenetic position based on 16S rRNA sequence data, the novel strain most appropriately belongs to the genus Roseovarius but can be readily distinguished from known species of this genus. Therefore, strain B108T represents a novel species, of the genus Roseovarius, for which the name Roseovarius indicus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is B108T ( = 2PR52-14T  = CCTCC AB 208233T  = LMG 24622T  = MCCC 1A01227T).
