A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming, aerobic, rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated DPG-28T, was isolated from seawater on the southern coast of Korea. Strain DPG-28T grew optimally at 30 °C and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain DPG-28T formed a coherent cluster with members of the genera Marivita and Gaetbulicola , with which it exhibited sequence similarity values of 97.8–98.5 %. The DNA G+C content of strain DPG-28T was 65.1 mol%. The predominant ubiquinone of strain DPG-28T was ubiquinone-10 (Q-10), consistent with data for the genera Marivita and Gaetbulicola . The cellular fatty acid profiles of strain DPG-28T and the type strains of Marivita cryptomonadis , Marivita litorea and Gaetbulicola byunsanensis were essentially similar in that the common predominant fatty acid was C18 : 1ω7c. Major polar lipids found in strain DPG-28T and the type strains of M. cryptomonadis , M. litorea and G. byunsanensis were phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and an unidentified aminolipid. From these data, it is proposed that Gaetbulicola byunsanensis be reclassified as a member of the genus Marivita , for which the name Marivita byunsanensis comb. nov. is proposed, with the type strain SMK-114T ( = CCUG 57612T  = KCTC 22632T), and that strain DPG-28T be classified in the genus Marivita . Differential phenotypic properties and genetic distinctiveness of strain DPG-28T demonstrated that this strain is distinguishable from M. cryptomonadis , M. litorea and G. byunsanensis . On the basis of the data presented, strain DPG-28T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Marivita , for which the name Marivita hallyeonensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DPG-28T ( = KCTC 23421T  = CCUG 60522T). An emended description of the genus Marivita is also provided.

A Gram-stain-negative, coccoid- or oval-shaped, gliding bacterial strain, designated HDW-31T, belonging to the class Alphaproteobacteria , was isolated from seawater of the Yellow Sea, Korea, and was subjected to a taxonomic study using a polyphasic approach. Strain HDW-31T grew optimally at pH 7.0–8.0, at 30 °C and in the presence of 2–3 % (w/v) NaCl. Neighbour-joining, maximum-likelihood and maximum-parsimony phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain HDW-31T fell within the clade comprising the genus Altererythrobacter , clustering with the type strains of Altererythrobacter luteolus and Altererythrobacter gangjinensis , with which strain HDW-31T exhibited 97.0 and 96.0 % sequence similarity values, respectively. Sequence similarities to the type strains of the other recognized species of the genus Altererythrobacter were 93.5–96.0 %. The DNA G+C content was 57.9 mol% and mean DNA–DNA relatedness between strain HDW-31T and the type strain of A. luteolus was 5.3 %. Strain HDW-31T contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω7c and/or C18 : 1ω6c), summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c) and C16 : 0 as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, a sphingoglycolipid, two unidentified glycolipids and an unidentified lipid. Differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, demonstrated that strain HDW-31T is distinguishable from recognized species of the genus Altererythrobacter . On the basis of the data presented, strain HDW-31T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Altererythrobacter , for which the name Altererythrobacter aestiaquae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HDW-31T ( = KCTC 42006T = CECT 8527T).

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, aerobic and coccoid, ovoid or rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated BS-W9T, was isolated from a tidal flat of the South Sea, South Korea. Strain BS-W9T grew optimally at 25–30 °C, at pH 7.0–8.0 and in the presence of approximately 2.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic trees, based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, revealed that strain BS-W9T clustered with the type strain of Halocynthiibacter namhaensis , showing a highest sequence similarity of 97.3 %. It exhibited sequence similarity values of less than 95.6 % to the type strains of other species with validly published names. Strain BS-W9T contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1ω7c as the predominant fatty acid. The major polar lipids of strain BS-W9T were phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, one unidentified lipid and one unidentified aminolipid. The fatty acid and polar lipid profiles of strain BS-W9T were distinguished from those of the type strains of H. namhaensis and other phylogenetically related genera. The DNA G+C content of strain BS-W9T was 53.2 mol% and its mean DNA–DNA relatedness value with H. namhaensis RA2-3T was 14 %. On the basis of the phylogenetic, chemotaxonomic and other phenotypic properties, strain BS-W9T is considered to represent a novel genus and species within the family Rhodobacteraceae , for which the name Pseudohalocyntiibacter aestuariivivens gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Pseudohalocyntiibacter aestuariivivens is BS-W9T ( = KCTC 42348T = CECT 8726T).

A Gram-staining-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain T202T, was isolated from the gill of a cultured flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, strain T202T was a member of the family Colwelliaceae and shared 93.32–96.58 % similarity with type strains of all members of the most closely related genus Thalassomonas . Phylogenetically, the isolate shared a root with the type strains of four marine species, Thalassomonas agariperforans M-M1T, Thalassomonas agarivorans TMA1T, Thalassomonas loyana CBMAI 722T and Thalassomonas ganghwensis JC2041T. Optimal growth occurred in the presence of 2–4 % (w/v) NaCl, at pH 7.0–8.0 and at 28 °C. Ubiquinone 8 (Q-8) was the predominant respiratory quinone. The major fatty acids were C16 : 0, summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c), C16 : 1ω9c and C17 : 1ω8c. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol. The DNA G+C content of strain T202T was 37 mol%. On the basis of polyphasic analysis, especially the phylogenetic relationships and the lower DNA G+C content, strain T202T is considered to represent a novel species in a new genus, for which the name Thalassotalea piscium gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Thalassotalea piscium is T202T ( = JCM 18590T = DSM 26287T = KCTC 32144T). Because Thalassomonas agariperforans M-M1T, Thalassomonas agarivorans TMA1T, Thalassomonas loyana CBMAI 722T and Thalassomonas ganghwensis JC2041T formed a phylogenetic group together with strain T202T that was clearly separated from other known strains of Thalassomonas , these four species are reclassified as members of the genus Thalassotalea as Thalassotalea agariperforans comb. nov. (type strain M-M1T = KCTC 23343T = CCUG 60020T), Thalassotalea agarivorans comb. nov. (type strain TMA1T = BCRC 17492T = JCM 13379T = DSM 19706T), Thalassotalea loyana comb. nov.

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, motile and rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated WT-RY4T, was isolated from wood falls in the South Sea, South Korea, and its taxonomic position was investigated using a polyphasic approach. Strain WT-RY4T grew optimally at 25 °C, at pH 7.0–7.5 and in the absence of NaCl. A neighbour-joining phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain WT-RY4T clustered with the type strain of Paraperlucidibaca baekdonensis with a bootstrap resampling value of 100 %. Strain WT-RY4T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 98.8 % and 96.3 % to Paraperlucidibaca baekdonensis RL-2T and Perlucidibaca piscinae IMCC 1704T, respectively and less than 91.5 % to the type strains of other species used in the phylogenetic analysis. The DNA G+C content of strain WT-RY4T was 52.4 mol% and the mean DNA–DNA relatedness value with Paraperlucidibaca baekdonensis RL-2T was 25 %. Strain WT-RY4T contained Q-11 as the predominant ubiquinone and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c), C16 : 0 and C12 : 0 3-OH as the major fatty acids. Differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, demonstrated that strain WT-RY4T was distinguishable from Paraperlucidibaca baekdonensis RL-2T. On the basis of the data presented, strain WT-RY4T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Paraperlucidibaca , for which the name Paraperlucidibaca wandonensis sp. nov. is proposed.
