A Gram-stain-negative bacterium, designated strain CBA4601T, was isolated from a seawater sample obtained off the coast of Jeju Island, Korea. The organism grew in the presence of 0–4 % (w/v) NaCl and at 20–35 °C and pH 7.0–9.0, with optimal growth in 2 % NaCl, and at 25 °C and pH 8.0. Phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain CBA4601T was related to the genus Ferrimonas within the class Gammaproteobacteria . 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain CBA4601T and Ferrimonas marina A4D-4T, the most closely related species, was 96.9 %. The G+C content of the genomic DNA from strain CBA4601T was 54.2 mol%, and the isoprenoid quinones menaquinone 7 (MK-7), ubiquinone 7 (Q-7) and ubiquinone 8 (Q-8) were detected. The major fatty acids were C17 : 1ω8c, C18 : 1ω9c and C16 : 0, and the major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and an unidentified ninhydrin-positive phospholipid. On the basis of this taxonomic study using a polyphasic approach, strain CBA4601T represents a novel species of the genus Ferrimonas , for which the name Ferrimonas pelagia sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CBA4601T ( = KACC 16695T = KCTC 32029T = JCM 18401T).

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, aerobic and pleomorphic bacterium, designated BS-W13T, was isolated from a tidal flat on the South Sea, South Korea, and its taxonomic position was investigated using a polyphasic approach. Strain BS-W13T grew optimally at 25 °C, at pH 7.0–8.0 and in the presence of 1.0–2.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Neighbour-joining and maximum-parsimony phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain BS-W13T clustered with the type strain of Seohaeicola saemankumensis , showing the highest sequence similarity (95.96 %) to this strain. Strain BS-W13T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 95.95, 95.91, 95.72 and 95.68 % to the type strains of Sulfitobacter donghicola , Sulfitobacter porphyrae , Sulfitobacter mediterraneus and Roseobacter litoralis , respectively. Strain BS-W13T contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1ω7c as the major fatty acid. The polar lipid profile of strain BS-W13T, containing phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified aminolipid and one unidentified lipid as major components, was distinguishable from those of some phylogenetically related taxa. The DNA G+C content of strain BS-W13T was 58.1 mol%. The phylogenetic data and differential chemotaxonomic and other phenotypic properties revealed that strain BS-W13T constitutes a novel genus and species within family Rhodobacteraceae of the class Alphaproteobacteria , for which the name Pseudoseohaeicola caenipelagi gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BS-W13T ( = KCTC 42349T = CECT 8724T).

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile, non-gliding, yellow-pigmented and rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated 1KV19T, was isolated from a surface sediment sample collected near a bay in the Arctic. Growth of strain 1KV19T occurred in 1–4 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2 %), at 4–35 °C (optimum, 25–30 °C) and at pH 6.5–8.0 (optimum, pH 7.0–7.5). The phylogenetic trees based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain 1KV19T was associated with the genus Lutibacter and had the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Lutibacter oceani 325-5T with 98.1 % similarity. Similarity values between strain 1KV19T and the type strains of other Lutibacter species were in the range 95.9–97.6 %. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain 1KV19T and related species of the genus Lutibacter were 76.4–79.1 and 19.9–22.3 %, respectively. The major cellular fatty acids of strain 1KV19T were iso-C15 : 0 3-OH, iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C16 : 1 H. The respiratory quinone was MK-6. The major polar lipids of strain 1KV19T were phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified aminolipid and two unidentified polar lipids. The phenotypic, genotypic and chemotaxonomic differences between strain 1KV19T and its phylogenetic relatives indicate that strain 1KV19T should be regarded as representing a novel species in the genus Lutibacter , for which the name Lutibacter citreus sp. nov. is proposed.

A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated SW123T, was isolated from a deep-sea water sample collected from the Indian Ocean. Strain SW123T was strictly aerobic, catalase- and oxidase-positive. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 and summed feature 9 (comprising C16 : 0-methyl or iso-C17 : 1 ω9c). Ubiquinone-8 was the sole respiratory quinone. The major polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol. The genomic DNA G+C content was 49.4 mol%. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain SW123T was closely related to Aliidiomarina shirensis AIST (96.7 % sequence similarity), Aliidiomarina iranensis GBPy7T (96.3%), Aliidiomarina haloalkalitolerans AK5T (96.0%) and Aliidiomarina celeris F3105T (95.9%). Phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain SW123T represented a novel member of the genus Aliidiomarina , forming a distinct cluster with A. celeris F3105T. On the basis of phylogenetic inference and phenotypic characteristics, we propose that strain SW123T represents a novel species of the genus Aliidiomarina , with the name Aliidiomarina indica sp. nov. The type strain is SW123T (=CGMCC1.16169T=KCTC 82234T).
