A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated WT-MW11T, was isolated from wood falls on the coast of Wando, an island of South Korea, and its taxonomic position was investigated by using a polyphasic approach. Strain WT-MW11T grew optimally at pH 7.0–8.0, at 25 °C and in the presence of 2.0–3.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Bacteriochlorophyll a was not produced. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain WT-MW11T clustered with Pseudorhodobacter ferrugineus IAM 12616T and Pseudorhodobacter aquimaris HDW-19T, with which it exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 97.9 and 95.5 %, respectively. Strain WT-MW11T contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1ω7c as the major fatty acid. The polar lipid profile of strain WT-MW11T was similar to those of P. ferrugineus JCM 20687T and P. aquimaris HDW-19T. The DNA G+C content of strain WT-MW11T was 61.6 mol% and its mean DNA–DNA relatedness value with P. ferrugineus JCM 20687T was 12.3 %. The phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness and differential phenotypic properties revealed that strain WT-MW11T was distinguishable from the two recognized species of the genus Pseudorhodobacter . On the basis of the data presented, strain WT-MW11T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Pseudorhodobacter , for which the name Pseudorhodobacter wandonensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is WT-MW11T ( = KCTC 23672T = CCUG 61506T). The description of the genus Pseudorhodobacter is emended.

Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and an up-to-date bacterial core gene set (92 protein clusters) indicated that strain KMB7T is affiliated with species in the genus Aquabacterium . The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity indicated that strain KMB7T is closely related to species within the genus Aquabacterium (95.2–97.6 % sequence similarity) and is most similar to A. fontiphilum CS-6T (97.6 %), followed by A. parvum B6T (97.5 %). The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization identity between strain KMB7T and the closely related strains were 74.6–78.0 % and 19.0–21.2 %, respectively. The major fatty acids of strain KMB7T were summed feature 3 (C16 : 1  ω7c and/or C16 : 1  ω6c), C18 : 1  ω7c and C16 : 0. The polar lipid profile consisted of a mixture of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylserine, diphosphatidylglycerol and four unidentified phospholipids. The sole isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-8 (Q-8). Genomic DNA G+C content of strain KMB7T was 65.4 %. On the basis of phenotypic and genotypic properties and phylogenetic inference, strain KMB7T should be classified in a novel species of the genus Aquabacterium , for which the name Aquabacterium lacunae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KMB7T (=BCRC 81156T=LMG 30924T=KCTC 62867T).

Strain SB026T was isolated from Brazilian rainforest soil and its taxonomic position established using data from a polyphasic study. The organism showed a combination of chemotaxonomic and morphological features consistent with its classification in the genus Amycolatopsis and formed a branch in the Amycolatopsis 16S rRNA gene tree together with Amycolatopsis bullii NRRL B-24847T, Amycolatopsis plumensis NRRL B-24324T, Amycolatopsis tolypomycina DSM 44544T and Amycolatopsis vancoresmycina NRRL B-24208T. It was related most closely to A. bullii NRRL B-24847T (99.0 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), but was distinguished from this strain by a low level of DNA–DNA relatedness (~46 %) and discriminatory phenotypic properties. Based on the combined genotypic and phenotypic data, it is proposed that the isolate should be classified in the genus Amycolatopsis as representing a novel species, Amycolatopsis rhabdoformis sp. nov. The type strain is SB026T ( = CBMAI 1694T = CMAA 1285T = NCIMB 14900T).
