A novel alphaproteobacterial strain, designated CPCC 100156T, was isolated from a forest soil sample collected from Hainan Island, South China, and subjected to taxonomic investigation using a polyphasic approach. The pink- to rosy-coloured colonies on TSA and YM agar were smooth and moist. Good growth occurred at 28–32 °C and at pH 7.0–7.5. The respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-9. The polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylcholine (PC), hydroxyphosphatidylethanolamine (OH-PE), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG) and two unidentified aminolipids (AL1, AL2), with a minor amount of ninhydrin-positive phosphoglycolipid. (NPG). The major cellular fatty acids were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω7c /C18 : 1ω6c) (49.5 %), summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c/C16 : 1ω6c) (22.5 %), and C16 : 0 (14.0 %). The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 70.3 mol%. The organism showed 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 97.37 % with Belnapia moabensis DSM 16746T. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the isolate belonged to the family Acetobacteraceae and consistently formed a robust cluster with Belnapia moabensis DSM 16746T in the phylogenetic tree. The DNA–DNA hybridization value between the new isolate and Belnapia moabensis DSM 16746T was 45.6 %. On the basis of the taxonomic evidence, it is proposed that strain CPCC 100156T represents a novel species, for which the name Belnapia rosea sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CPCC 100156T ( = DSM 23312T = CGMCC 1.10758T). The description of the genus Belnapia is emended accordingly.

A novel actinomycete producing 2-allyloxyphenol, designated strain MS1/7T, was isolated from sediments of the Sundarbans mangrove forest, India. Growth on International Streptomyces Project (ISP) media 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7 produced olive green to grey aerial hyphae that carried smooth-surfaced spores in a flexuous (Rectiflexibiles) arrangement. The strain contained ll-diaminopimelic acid, but no diagnostic sugars in whole-cell hydrolysates. Hexa-, octa- and a minor amount of tetra-hydrogenated menaquinones with nine isoprene units [MK-9 (H4, H6, H8 and H10)] were present as isoprene analogues. Diagnostic phospholipids were phosphatidylethanolamine and diphosphatidylglycerol. The predominant fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0 (34.80 %), iso-C16 : 0 (16.45 %), C16 (10.53 %) and anteiso-C17 : 0 (10.92 %). The strain showed greater than 99 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to the type strains of several recognized species of the genus Streptomyces, but in the phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences it formed a distinct phyletic line and demonstrated closest relationships to viomycin-producers (Streptomyces californicus NRRL B-1221T, Streptomyces floridae MTCC 2534T and Streptomyces puniceus NRRL B-2895T). However, strain MS1/7T could be distinguished from these and other closely related species based on low levels of DNA–DNA relatedness (<44 %) and disparate physiological features, principally amino acid utilization and growth in NaCl. Strain MS1/7T is therefore suggested to represent a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces sundarbansensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MS1/7T ( = MTCC 10621T = DSM 42019T).

Abstract Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-flagellated strains 172403-2T and BT310T were isolated from the soil collected in Pyeongchang city and Uijeongbu city, Korea. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strains 172403-2T and BT310T formed a distinct lineage within the family Hymenobacteraceae (order Chitinophagales, class Chitinophagia) and were most closely related to members of the genus Pontibacter, Pontibacter chitinilyticus 17gy-14T (95.7%), and Pontibacter populi HLY7-15T (97.1% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity) respectively. The optimal growth of strains 172403-2T and BT310T occurred at pH 7.0, in the absence of NaCl, and 25°C and 30°C, respectively. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15:0 and summed feature 4 (iso-C17:1 I / anteiso-C17:1 B). The major respiratory quinone of the two strains was MK-7. The major polar lipid of the two strains was phosphatidylethanolamine. Biochemical, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic analyses indicated that strains 172403-2T and BT310T represent novel bacterial species within the genus Pontibacter, for which the names Pontibacter rubellus and Pontibacter situs are proposed. The type strains of Pontibacter rubellus and Pontibacter situs are 172403-2T and BT310T, respectively.

A Gram-negative, chemoheterotrophic, facultatively anaerobic coccus, designated IMCC1545T, was isolated from the digestive tract of a marine clamworm, Periserrula leucophryna, inhabiting a tidal flat of the Yellow Sea. Cells of strain IMCC1545T are non-motile, dividing by binary fission. The predominant fatty acids are anteiso-C15 : 0 and C18 : 0. The respiratory quinone is menaquinone-7 and the DNA G+C content is 52.1 mol%. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences using three treeing algorithms revealed that the strain formed a novel genus-level lineage within the phylum ‘Verrucomicrobia’. The most closely related named organisms to strain IMCC1545T are ‘Fucophilus fucoidanolyticus’ SI-1234 (86.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Alterococcus agarolyticus ADT3T (81.8 %) and Opitutus terrae PB90-1T (80.3 %), which belong to subdivision 4 of the ‘Verrucomicrobia’. Subdivision 4 of the ‘Verrucomicrobia’ (here named Opitutae classis nov.) was divided into two clades, a clade containing strain IMCC1545T and a clade containing Opitutus terrae. From the taxonomic data obtained in this study, it is proposed that the new marine isolate be placed into a novel genus and species named Puniceicoccus vermicola gen. nov., sp. nov. (the type strain of Puniceicoccus vermicola is IMCC1545T=KCCM 42343T=NBRC 101964T) within Puniceicoccaceae fam. nov and Puniceicoccales ord. nov in the class Opitutae. The family Opitutaceae fam. nov. and order Opitutales ord. nov. are also formally proposed.
