A novel Gram-stain-negative, horseshoe-shaped, non-motile bacterium, designated strain M12-11BT, was isolated from a marine sediment sample collected at a depth of 200 m from Kongsfjorden, Svalbard. The colony colour was orangish red due to the presence of carotenoids. Fatty acids were dominated by branched and unsaturated fatty acids (90.8 %), with a high abundance of iso-C15 : 0 (14.9 %), anteiso-C15 : 0 (11.4 %), iso-C15 : 1 G (13.1 %), C15 : 1ω6c (5.4 %), C17 : 1ω6c (6.7 %), summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c; 9.3 %) and summed feature 9 (10-methyl C16 : 0 and/or iso-C17 : 1ω9c; 5.9 %). Strain M12-11BT contained MK-7 as the major respiratory quinone. The polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified aminolipid and three unidentified lipids. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities, the type strains of Cyclobacterium amurskyense , Cyclobacterium marinum and Cyclobacterium lianum were most closely related to M12-11BT with sequence similarities of 98.2, 96.8 and 93.3 %, respectively. Other members of the family Cyclobacteriaceae had sequence similarities of <92.0 %. However, DNA–DNA hybridization with Cyclobacterium amurskyense KCTC 12363T and Cyclobacterium marinum DSM 745T showed relatedness values of only 24.5 and 32.5 % with respect to strain M12-11BT. Based on the results of DNA–DNA hybridization experiments and phenotypic and chemotaxonomic data, it appears that strain M12-11BT represents a novel species of the genus Cyclobacterium , for which the name Cyclobacterium qasimii sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is M12-11BT ( = KCTC 23011T = NBRC 106168T) and it has a DNA G+C content of 40.5 mol%.

A novel biosurfactant-producing strain, designated YW1T, was isolated from agricultural soil. Its taxonomic position was investigated using a polyphasic approach. The cells were short rods, Gram-negative, non-sporulating and motile. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain YW1T was a member of the genus Comamonas , and showed highest sequence similarities to Comamonas aquatica LMG 2370T (98.5 %), Comamonas kerstersii LMG 3475T (97.7 %) and Comamonas terrigena LMG 1253T (97.7 %). Furthermore, DNA–DNA hybridization experiments against these three strains gave results that were clearly lower than 70 % DNA–DNA similarity, and consequently confirmed that this new strain does not belong to a previously described species of the genus Comamonas . The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-8. The major fatty acids (>5 %) were C16 : 0 (30.1 %), summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c; 25.4 %), summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω6c and/or C18 : 1ω7c; 15.3 %), C17 : 0 cyclo (7.4 %) and C14 : 0 (5.8 %). The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, unknown phospholipids and unknown lipids. Based on the phylogenetic analysis, DNA–DNA hybridization, whole-cell fatty acid composition as well as biochemical characteristics, strain YW1T was clearly distinguishable from all species of the genus Comamonas with validly published names and should be classified as a representative of a novel species of the genus Comamonas , for which the name Comamonas jiangduensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YW1T ( = CCTCC AB 2012033T = KACC 16697T).

Yellow or orange-to-brown pigmented, ovoid or rod-shaped, Gram-negative staining, aerobic strains PE 4-5T and N5-10 m-1 were isolated from brackish water in Lake Peng Co and fresh to brackish water in Lake Namtso on the Tibetan Plateau, China. Bacteriochlorophyll a was produced by the isolates. The predominant cellular fatty acids were C16 : 1, C17 : 1 and C18 : 1 unsaturated fatty acids, C17 : 1ω6c (55.3 %), C17 : 1ω8c (13.0 %) and C18 : 1ω7c (10.4 %) for PE 4-5T and C18 : 1ω7c (54.7 %) and C16 : 1ω7c (18.0 %) for N5-10 m-1. The polar lipid profiles of strains PE 4-5T and N5-10 m-1 were composed of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine (not detected in N5-10 m-1), phosphatidyldimethylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, sphingoglycolipid and an unknown phospholipid. The predominant respiratory quinone was ubiquinone Q10 and the DNA G+C content was 66.0 mol% for both strains. The16S rRNA gene sequence of strain PE 4-5T shared 99.0 % similarity with that of N5-10 m-1, and 97.56 % similarity with those of Blastomonas natatoria LMG 17322T and Blastomonas ursincola DSM 9006T, respectively. The DNA–DNA hybridization relatedness between strains PE 4-5T and N5-10 m-1 was 79.0±1.0 %, but below 70 % with the type strains in the genus Blastomonas . Based on the variability of phylogenetic and phenotypic characteristics, the isolates should be classified as representatives of a novel species of the genus Blastomonas ; the name Blastomonas aquatica sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is PE 4-5T ( = JCM 30179T = CGMCC 1.12851T).

A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped and facultatively aerobic bacterial strain, designated F7430T, was isolated from coastal sediment collected at Jingzi Wharf in Weihai, PR China. Cells of strain F7430T were 0.3–0.4 µm wide, 2.0–2.6 µm long, non-flagellated, non-motile and formed pale-beige colonies. Growth was observed at 4–40 °C (optimum, 30 °C), pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.5–8.0) and at NaCl concentrations of 1.0–10.0 % (w/v; optimum, 1.0 %). The sole respiratory quinone of strain F7430T was ubiquinone 8 and the predominant cellular fatty acids were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1  ω7c / C18 : 1  ω6c; 60.7 %), summed feature 3 (C16 : 1  ω7c/C16 : 1  ω6c; 30.2 %) and C15 : 0 iso (13.9 %). The polar lipids of strain F7430T consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, one unidentified phospholipid and three unidentified lipids. Results of 16S rRNA gene sequences analyses indicated that this strain belonged to the family Halieaceae and had high sequence similarities to Parahaliea aestuarii JCM 51547T (95.3 %) and Halioglobus pacificus DSM 27932T (95.2 %) followed by 92.9–95.0 % sequence similarities to other type species within the aforementioned family. The rpoB gene sequences analyses indicated that the novel strain had the highest sequence similarities to Parahaliea aestuarii JCM 51547T (82.2 %) and Parahaliea mediterranea DSM 21924T (82.2 %) followed by 75.2–80.5 % sequence similarities to other type species within this family. Phylogenetic analyses showed that strain F7430T constituted a monophyletic branch clearly separated from the other genera of family Halieaceae . Whole-genome sequencing of strain F7430T revealed a 3.3 Mbp genome size with a DNA G+C content of 52.6 mol%. The genome encoded diverse metabolic pathways including the Entner–Doudoroff pathway, assimilatory sulphate reduction and biosynthesis of dTDP-l-rhamnose. Based on results from the current polyphasic study, strain F7430T is proposed to represent a novel species of a new genus within the family Halieaceae , for which the name Sediminihaliea albiluteola gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the type species is F7430T (=KCTC 72873T=MCCC 1H00420T).

Two novel chemo-organoheterotrophic members of the Sphingomonadaceae were isolated from alpine and pre-alpine lakes. Cells stained Gram-negative, were motile and rod-shaped, and formed yellow, circular, convex colonies on different agar media. Strains 301T and 469T were strictly aerobic, catalase- and oxidase-positive, and grew at temperatures between 10 and 40 °C (optimum, 28 °C), and at pH values between 5 and 10 (optimum, pH 7). Both strains contained Q-10 as the dominant quinone, sphingoglycolipids and 2-hydroxymyristic acid, whereas 3-hydroxy fatty acids were absent. Major fatty acids of strain 301T were C18 : 1ω7c (53.3 %) and C16 : 1ω7c (22.9 %), with C14 : 0 2-OH (10.8 %) as the major 2-hydroxy fatty acid. Fatty acids of strain 469T were dominated by C18 : 1ω7c (34.4 %), C16 : 1ω7c (32.0 %) and C14 : 0 2-OH (15.2 %) as the major 2-hydroxy fatty acid. The genomic DNA G+C contents of strains 301T and 469T were 63.4 and 64.6 mol%, respectively. 16S rRNA gene sequence comparison indicated that both strains belonged to the genus Sphingobium . This classification was supported by the presence of spermidine as the major polyamine. The phylogenetically closest relatives of strain 301T were Sphingobium amiense DSM 16289T, Sphingobium vermicomposti DSM 21299T, Sphingobium yanoikuyae DSM 7462T and Sphingobium scionense DSM 19371T (98.8, 98.0, 97.9 and 97.4 % sequence similarity, respectively). DNA–DNA hybridization of genomic DNA yielded similarities in the range 43.2–12.1 % between strain 301T and the type strains of these four Sphingobium species. Closest relatives of strain 469T were Sphingomonas suberifaciens DSM 7465T and Sphingobium scionense DSM 19371T (97.1 and 96.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, respectively). The degree of DNA–DNA hybridization between strain 469T and Sphingomonas suberifaciens DSM 7465T was 17.9 %. Based on the results of the molecular analyses and their phenotypic characteristics, strains 301T and 469T represent two novel species of the genus Sphingobium . The name Sphingobium limneticum sp. nov. is proposed for strain 301T( = DSM25076T = LMG 26659T). The name Sphingobium boeckii sp. nov. is proposed for strain 469T ( = DSM 25079T = LMG 26901T). The polyphasic analysis also suggests that Sphingomonas suberifaciens should be reclassified as Sphingobium suberifaciens comb. nov. with Ca1T ( = EY 2404T = ATCC 49355T = CIP 105429T = DSM 7465T = ICMP 12535T = NBRC 15211T = JCM 8521T = LMG 17323T = NCPPB 3629T) as the type strain.

Phospholipids consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine with hydroxy fatty acids and diphosphatidylglycerol, as well as other unknown phospholipids; however, no mycolic acids were detected. The predominant menaquinone observed was MK-9(H4) and major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0 and 2-OH iso-C16 : 0. The G+C content of genomic DNA was 74 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that this isolate was most similar to Actinokineospora enzanensis NBRC 16517T. However, DNA–DNA hybridization revealed a low relatedness between this isolate and A. enzanensis NBRC 16517T, indicating that this isolate represented a novel species in the genus Actinokineospora . On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, phenotypic characteristics and DNA–DNA hybridization data, we propose that strain 44EHWT represents a novel species in the genus Actinokineospora , Actinokineospora bangkokensis. The type strain is 44EHWT ( = BCC 53155T = NBRC 108932T).
