A Gram-staining-negative, aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated DPG-21T, was isolated from seawater from the South Sea in Korea, and investigated using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Strain DPG-21T grew optimally at pH 7.0–8.0, at 30 °C and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. In a neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain DPG-21T clustered with Tropicimonas isoalkanivorans B51T (with a sequence similarity of 97.1 %); the novel strain showed lower 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities (<95.4 %) with the other species included in the tree. The mean DNA–DNA relatedness value between strain DPG-21T and T. isoalkanivorans DSM 19548T was 12 %. The predominant ubiquinones of strain DPG-21T were Q-10 and Q-9 while C18 : 1ω7c was the strain’s major fatty acid. The polar lipid profile of strain DPG-21T was similar to that of T. isoalkanivorans DSM 19548T. The genomic DNA G+C content of the novel strain was 69.6 mol%. Some phenotypic properties and the phylogenetic and genetic data indicated that strain DPG-21T was distinct from T. isoalkanivorans and represents a novel species of the genus Tropicimonas, for which the name Tropicimonas aquimaris sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DPG-21T ( = KCTC 23424T = CCUG 60524T).

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-flagellated, non-gliding and ovoid or rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain W-BA8T, was isolated from a brown algae reservoir on the South Sea, South Korea, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Strain W-BA8T grew optimally at 25 °C, at pH 7.0–7.5 and in the presence of 1.0–2.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Neighbour-joining and maximum-parsimony phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain W-BA8T clustered with the type strains of species of the genus Lacinutrix. Strain W-BA8T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 94.9–96.5 % to the type strains of Lacinutrix species and of less than 95.8 % to the type strains of other recognized species. Strain W-BA8T contained MK-6 as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G, iso-C15 : 0 3-OH and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH as major fatty acids.

The DNA G+C content of strain W-BA8T was 35 mol%. Differential phenotypic properties, together with phylogenetic distinctiveness, revealed that strain W-BA8T is separated from other species of the genus Lacinutrix. On the basis of the data presented, strain W-BA8T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Lacinutrix, for which the name Lacinutrix undariae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is W-BA8T ( = KCTC 42176T = CECT 8671T).

A Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, yellow-pigmented, slightly halophilic bacterial strain, SW-109T, was isolated from a tidal flat of the Yellow Sea in Korea, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. This isolate did not produce bacteriochlorophyll a and contained ubiquinone-10 as the predominant respiratory lipoquinone and C18 : 1 ω7c as the major fatty acid. The DNA G+C content was 60·3 mol%. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain SW-109T is phylogenetically affiliated to the genus Erythrobacter of the family Sphingomonadaceae. Strain SW-109T exhibited levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to the type strains of Erythrobacter species of 94·0–96·3 %, making it possible to categorize strain SW-109T as a species that is separate from previously recognized Erythrobacter species. On the basis of its phenotypic properties and phylogenetic distinctiveness, SW-109T (=KCTC 12311T=JCM 12599T) was classified as the type strain of a novel Erythrobacter species, for which the name Erythrobacter luteolus sp. nov. is proposed.

Strain HWR-17T grew optimally at pH 7.0–8.0, at 30 °C and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain HWR-17T clustered with the two Mariniflexile species in the family Flavobacteriaceae, exhibiting 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 97.1–97.2 % to their type strains and less than 95.7 % sequence similarity to other members of the family Flavobacteriaceae. Strain HWR-17T contained MK-6 as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C15 : 0 as the major fatty acid. The polar lipid profile of strain HWR-17T contained phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid and four unidentified lipids. The DNA G+C content of strain HWR-17T was 35.7 mol% and it exhibited 11 and 10 % DNA–DNA relatedness, respectively, with Mariniflexile gromovii KCTC 12570T and Mariniflexile fucanivorans DSM 18792T. The phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness and differential phenotypic properties revealed that strain HWR-17T is distinguishable from the two recognized Mariniflexile species. On the basis of the data presented, strain HWR-17T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Mariniflexile, for which the name Mariniflexile aquimaris sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HWR-17T ( = KCTC 23346T  = CCUG 60529T). An emended description of the genus Mariniflexile is also proposed.
