Three Gram-staining-negative, strictly aerobic, non-pigmented, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterial strains, SP32T ( = SLM-1T), SR68 ( = SLM-3) and SP95 ( = SLM-2), were isolated from two water samples of a cold-water lake in Xinjiang province, China. Growth was observed at 4–25 °C and pH 6.0–9.0, and optimum growth occurred at 18–20 °C and at pH 7.0–7.5. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that these isolates belonged to the family Rhodobacteraceae , but formed an evolutionary lineage distinct from other species of this family with validly published names. Strain SP32T showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (96.7 %) to Rhodobacter veldkampii ATCC 35703T, and the similarity to members of the genera Defluviimonas , Haematobacter and Pseudorhodobacter was respectively 95.8–96.4, 96.0–96.1 and 95.3–96.1 %. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain SP32T was 67.6 mol%. The major fatty acids (>5 %) were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω7c/C18 : 1ω6c) and11-methyl C18 : 1ω7c. Phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, one unidentified glycolipid and one unidentified polar lipid were the main polar lipids. Ubiquinone 10 (Q-10) was the sole respiratory quinone. Strain SP32T did not produce photosynthetic pigments and did not contain the gene pufM, by which it differed from the phototrophic species of the family Rhodobacteraceae . Based on its distinct phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic properties, strain SP32T represents a novel species in a novel genus within the family Rhodobacteraceae , for which we propose the name Frigidibacter albus gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain of Frigidibacter albus is strain SP32T ( = SLM-1T = CGMCC 1.13995T = NBRC 109671T).

A Gram-staining-negative, dark orange, strictly aerobic bacterium, designated strain HP12T, was isolated from a tidal flat at Hampyeong in South Korea. Cells were moderately halotolerant, catalase- and oxidase-positive, non-motile rods. Growth was observed at 5–35 °C (optimum, 25 °C), at pH 6.0–8.5 (optimum, pH 7.0–7.5), and in the presence of 1–6 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1–2 %). The major cellular fatty acids were summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH), iso-C17 : 0 3-OH, C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G and iso-C15 : 0. The polar lipid pattern indicated the presence of phosphatidylethanolamine and two unidentified lipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 37.1 mol% and the predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone-6. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the novel strain formed a tight phyletic lineage with members of the genus Arenibacter and was most closely related to Arenibacter palladensis KMM 3961T, Arenibacter troitsensis KMM 3674T and Arenibacter echinorum KMM 6032T, with 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 98.1 %, 98.0 % and 97.8 %, respectively. However, the DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain HP12T and A. palladensis JCM 13509T, A. troitsensis KCTC 12362T and A. echinorum KCTC 22013T were only 20.2±0.3 %, 22.6±0.6 % and 9.1±2.6 %, respectively. On the basis of phenotypic and molecular features, strain HP12T represents a novel species of the genus Arenibacter , for which the name Arenibacter hampyeongensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HP12T ( = KACC 16193T = JCM 17788T).
