A Gram-staining-negative, non-motile, non-pigmented and rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated IMCC12053T, was isolated from coastal surface seawater of the Yellow Sea, Korea. Optimal growth of strain IMCC12053T was observed at 30 °C, pH 7.0 and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons showed that strain IMCC12053T was most closely related to Celeribacter baekdonensis L-6T (97.5 % similarity) and Celeribacter neptunius H 14T (96.0 %). Strain IMCC12053T formed a robust phylogenetic clade with members of the genus Celeribacter . The DNA–DNA relatedness value between IMCC12053T and C. baekdonensis was far lower than 70 % (35.7–42.5 %), which indicated that strain IMCC12053T is a novel genomic species of the genus Celeribacter . The major respiratory isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-10 (Q-10) and major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine and aminolipids. The DNA G+C content was 61.0 mol%. On the basis of genotypic and phenotypic data collected in this study, it is proposed that strain IMCC12053T represents a novel species of the genus Celeribacter , for which the name Celeribacter marinus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is IMCC12053T ( = KACC 17482T = NBRC 109702T).

A novel aerobic, Gram-stain-negative, motile bacterium, designated strain BUT-10T, was isolated from the sludge of a pesticide manufacturing factory in Kunshan, China. Cells were rod-shaped (0.4–0.45×0.9–1.4 µm) and colonies were white, circular with entire edges and had a smooth surface. The strain grew at 25–37 °C, at pH 6.0–8.0 and with 0–0.5 % NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons revealed that strain BUT-10T was a member of the genus Phenylobacterium , and showed highest sequence similarities to Phenylobacterium muchangponense A8T (97.49 %), Phenylobacterium immobile DSM 1986T (97.14 %) and Phenylobacterium lituiforme FaiI3T (96.34 %). Major fatty acids (>5 %) were summed feature 8 (comprising C18 : 1ω7c and/or C18 : 1ω6c), C16 : 0 and summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c). The major isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-10. The DNA G+C content was 71.85 mol%. Strain BUT-10T showed low DNA–DNA relatedness with P. muchangponense A8T (15.7±2.9 %) and P. immobile DSM 1986T (12.8±1.1 %). On the basis of the phenotypic, phylogenetic and genotypic data, strain BUT-10T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Phenylobacterium , for which the name Phenylobacterium kunshanense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BUT-10T ( = CCTCC AB 2013085T = KCTC 42014T).

A Gram-positive, rod-shaped, endospore-forming bacterium, designated strain BLB-1T, was isolated from samples of tidal flat sediment from the Yellow Sea. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis demonstrated that the isolate belonged to the Bacillus rRNA group 2 and was closely related to Bacillus massiliensis CIP 108446T (97.4 %), Bacillus odysseyi ATCC PTA-4993T (96.7 %), Lysinibacillus fusiformis DSM 2898T (96.2 %) and Lysinibacillus boronitolerans DSM 17140T (95.9 %). Sequence similarities with related species in other genera, including Caryophanon , Sporosarcina and Solibacillus , were <96.1 %. Chemotaxonomic data supported the affiliation of strain BLB-1T with the genus Lysinibacillus . The major menaquinone was MK-7, the cell-wall sugars were glucose and xylose, the cell-wall peptidoglycan type was A4α (l-Lys–d-Asp), the major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and several unknown phospholipids, and the major fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0 (35.6 %), iso-C15 : 0 (25.6 %) and anteiso-C17 : 0 (16.5 %). The most closely related species, Bacillus massiliensis and Bacillus odysseyi , were also assigned to this genus based on phylogenetic analysis and phenotypic data. The results of DNA–DNA hybridizations and phenotypic tests supported the differentiation of all three taxa from species of the genus Lysinibacillus with validly published names. Thus, strain BLB-1T ( = KCTC 13296T  = JCM 15800T) represents a novel species, for which the name Lysinibacillus sinduriensis sp. nov. is proposed. It is also proposed that Bacillus massiliensis CIP 108446T ( = 4400831T = CCUG49529T  = KCTC 13178T) and Bacillus odysseyi NBRC 100172T ( = 34hs-1T  = ATCC PTA-4993T  = NRRL B-30641T  = DSM 18869T  = CIP 108263T  = KCTC 3961T) be transferred to the genus Lysinibacillus as Lysinibacillus massiliensis comb. nov. and Lysinibacillus odysseyi comb. nov., respectively.

A novel Gram-staining-negative, catalase- and oxidase-positive, facultatively anaerobic and rod-shaped motile bacterial strain, designated as ZWAL4003T, was isolated from mangrove sediments of the Zini Mangrove Forest, Zhangzhou City, PR China. Phylogenetic analysis based on its 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that ZWAL4003T was grouped into a separated branch with Vibrio plantisponsor MSSRF60T (97.38% nucleotide sequence identity) and Vibrio diazotrophicus NBRC 103148T (97.27%). The major cellular fatty acids were C14 : 0 (12.6%), C16 : 0 (17.6%), and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω6c /C16 : 1 ω7c, 45.6%). Its genome had a length of 4650556 bp with 42.8% DNA G+C content, and contained genes involved in the biosynthesis of bacteriocin, β-lactone, resorcinol, N-acyl amino acid, and arylpolyene. The in silico DNA–DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values for whole-genome sequence comparisons between ZWAL4003T and V. plantisponsor LMG 24470T were clearly below the thresholds used for the delineation of a novel species. The morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics and the genotypic data of ZWAL4003T indicated that it represented a novel species of the genus Vibrio . Its proposed name is Vibrio ziniensis sp. nov., and the type strain is ZWAL4003T (=KCTC 72971T=MCCC 1A17474T).

A Gram-staining-negative, aerobic, yellow, non-flagellated, non-gliding, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain IMCC1021T, was isolated off the coast of the East Sea. Optimal growth of strain IMCC1021T was observed at 25 °C, pH 7.0–7.5 and in the presence of 3.0–3.5 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the strain belonged to the genus Mesonia , showing a close relationship with Mesonia mobilis KMM 6059T (97.4 % similarity) followed by Mesonia phycicola MDSW-25T (96.1 %). DNA–DNA relatedness between strain IMCC1021T and M. mobilis KMM 6059T was 17.5 % (reciprocal 7.4 %), which indicated that the new isolate represents a novel genomic species of the genus Mesonia . The major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH, and the G+C content of the genomic DNA was 41.4 mol%. Strain IMCC1021T contained menaquinone-6 (MK-6) as the respiratory quinone, and polar lipids comprising phosphatidylethanolamine, two unknown aminolipids and three unknown polar lipids. On the basis of the phylogenetic distinctions and differential phenotypic characteristics, it is suggested that strain IMCC1021T ( = KCTC 32320T = NBRC 109485T) should be assigned to the genus Mesonia as the type strain of a novel species, for which the name Mesonia aquimarina sp. nov. is proposed.

A Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped and non-motile bacterial strain, designated 12C25T, was isolated from the crude-oil-degrading bacterial consortium enriched from mangrove sediment collected in Fujian Province, China. Optimal growth was observed at 25–28 °C, at pH 7.0 and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl + 2 % (w/v) KCl. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis demonstrated that strain 12C25T shared the highest sequence similarity with members of the genus Muricauda (97.7–93.9 %), exhibiting 97.7 % sequence similarity and 33.7±4 % DNA–DNA relatedness to Muricauda aquimarina SW-63T. The DNA G+C content of strain 12C25T was 39.9 mol%. The dominant fatty acids were iso-C15 : 1 G, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH, iso-C15 : 0, C18 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0 3-OH, and menaquinone with six isoprene units (MK-6) was the only respiratory quinone. On the basis of phenotypic data and phylogenetic inference, the novel strain belongs to the genus Muricauda , but can readily be distinguished from known species of this genus and thus represents a novel species of the genus Muricauda. The name Muricauda zhangzhouensis sp. nov. is proposed and the type strain is 12C25T ( = CGMCC 1.11028T = MCCC 1F01096T = DSM 25030T).
