A taxonomic study was carried out on strain 22II14-10F7T, which was isolated from the deep-sea water of the Atlantic Ocean with oil-degrading enrichment. The bacterium was Gram-stain-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive and rod-shaped. Growth was observed at salinities from 0.5 to 15 % and at temperatures from 4 to 37 °C; it was unable to hydrolyse Tween 40, 80 or gelatin. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain 22II14-10F7T represented a member of the genus Zunongwangia , with highest sequence similarity of 97.3 % to Zunongwangia profunda SM-A87T, while the similarities to other species were all below 94.0 %. The DNA–DNA hybridization estimate of the similarity between strain 22II14-10F7T and Z. profunda SM-A87T was 27.20±2.43 % according to their genome sequences. The principal fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0 , iso-C15 : 1 G, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH, summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c/ω6c) and summed feature 9 (iso-C17 : 1ω9c or C16 : 0 10-methyl). The G+C content of the chromosomal DNA was 35.5 mol%. The major respiratory quinone was determined to be MK-6. Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), two aminolipids (AL1 and AL2) and five unknown lipids (L1–L5) were present.

A novel Gram-stain-positive, motile, aerobic, non-spore-forming and slender rod-shaped actinobacterium, designated strain CTD02-10-2T, was isolated from deep sea water of the Indian Ocean. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that strain CTD02-10-2T was grouped into a separated branch with Chryseoglobus frigidaquae JCM 14730T (98.4 % nucleotide sequence identity). The respiratory quinones were menaquinones with 11, 12, 13 and 14 isoprene units and anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 1 A and anteiso-C17 : 0 were the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and three unknown glycolipids. The genome of strain CTD02-10-2T was 2.59 Mb, with a DNA G+C content of 69.6 mol% and contained genes involved in the biosynthesis of alkylresorcinol, ansamycin, and carotenoids. In silico DNA–DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values for whole-genome sequence comparisons between strain CTD02-10-2T and C. frigidaquae JCM 14730T were clearly below the thresholds used for the delineation of a new species. Based on its morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics, as well as genotypic data, strain CTD02-10-2T was classified as a novel species of the genus Chryseoglobus , for which the name Chryseoglobus indicus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CTD02-10-2T (=JCM 33842T=MCCC 1A16619T).
