A Gram-stain-positive, strictly aerobic, yellow colony-forming bacterium, designated strain 3-3T, was isolated from forest soil of Bac Kan Province in Vietnam. Cells were non-motile rods without gliding motility, showing oxidase- and catalase-positive reactions. Growth was observed at 20–37 °C (optimum, 28 °C) and pH 5.5–9.5 (optimum, pH 7.5). The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G and summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c). Strain 3-3T contained phosphatidylethanoamine, three unidentified aminolipids and three unidentified lipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 49.5 mol% and the only isoprenoid quinone detected was menaquinone 7 (MK-7). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain 3-3T formed a tight phylogenetic lineage with Flavihumibacter petaseus T41T with a bootstrap value of 100 %. Strain 3-3T was related most closely to F. petaseus T41T with 97.3 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity and the level of DNA–DNA relatedness between the two was 9.4±1.2 %. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and molecular features, strain 3-3T represents a novel species of the genus Flavihumibacter , for which the name Flavihumibacter solisilvae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 3-3T ( = KACC 17917T = JCM 19891T).

Two Gram-stain-negative, yellow-pigmented and strictly aerobic bacteria, designated strains SE-s27T and SE-s28T, were isolated from forest soil. Both strains were non-motile rods that were catalase-positive and oxidase-negative and grew optimally at 25–30 °C, pH 8.0 and with 0 % (w/v) NaCl. Strain SE-s28T produced flexirubin-type pigments, but strain SE-s27T did not produce them. Both strains contained menaquinone-6 as the sole respiratory quinone and phosphatidylethanolamine as a major polar lipid. As the major cellular fatty acids (>10 %), SE-s27T contained iso-C15 : 1 and iso-C15 : 1G, whereas SE-s28T contained iso-C15 : 0 and summed feature 3 comprising C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH. The DNA G+C contents of strains SE-s27T and SE-s28T were 33.1 and 44.3 mol%, respectively. The results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that SE-s27T and SE-s28T formed respective distinct phylogenetic lineages within the genus Flavobacterium . Strains SE-s27T and SE-s28T were most closely related to Flavobacterium macrobrachii an-8T and Flavobacterium piscinae ICH-30T with 98.0 and 94.5 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities, respectively. In conclusion, strains SE-s27T and SE-s28T represent novel species of the genus Flavobacterium , for which the names Flavobacterium solisilvae sp. nov. and Flavobacterium silvaticum sp. nov. are proposed. The type strains of F. solisilvae and F. silvaticum are SE-s27T (=KACC 18802T=JCM 31544T) and SE-s28T (=KACC 18803T=JCM 31545T), respectively.

A Gram-stain-negative, ochre-pigmented, strictly aerobic bacterium, designated strain KJ7T, was isolated from a tidal flat of the Gangjin bay in South Korea. Cells were halotolerant, non-motile, catalase- and oxidase-positive rods. Growth of strain KJ7T was observed at 5–35 °C (optimum, 25 °C), at pH 6.0–9.5 (optimum, pH 6.5–7.0) and in the presence of 0–9 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2 %). The major cellular fatty acids were C18 : 1ω7c, C17 : 1ω6c, summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c) and C16 : 0. The polar lipid pattern indicated the presence of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, a sphingoglycolipid, an unidentified phospholipid and two unidentified lipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 60.2±0.9 mol% and the predominant respiratory quinone was Q-10. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain KJ7T formed a phyletic lineage distinct from other members of the genus Altererythrobacter and was most closely related to Altererythrobacter luteolus SW-109T and Altererythrobacter namhicola KYW48T (95.6 and 95.0 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, respectively). On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and molecular features, strain KJ7T represents a novel species of the genus Altererythrobacter , for which the name Altererythrobacter gangjinensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KJ7T ( = KACC 16190T = JCM 17802T).

A Gram-negative, strictly aerobic, yellow bacterial strain, designated DS-12T, was isolated from hexachlorocyclohexane-contaminated soil in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India. Strain DS-12T showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with Flavobacterium ceti 454-2T (94.2 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain DS-12T belonged to the genus Flavobacterium . Strain DS-12T produced flexirubin-type pigments. Gliding motility was not observed. The major fatty acids of strain DS-12T were iso-C15 : 0 (48.0 %), summed feature 9 (comprising iso-C17 : 1ω9c and/or C16 : 0 10-methyl; 19.3 %), iso-C17 : 0 3-OH (8.5 %) and summed feature 3 (comprising one or more of C16 : 1ω7c, C16 : 1ω6c and iso-C15 : 0 2-OH; 7.2 %). The only respiratory quinone was menaquinone-6 and the major polyamine was homospermidine. Strain DS-12T contained phosphatidyldimethylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylethanolamine, one unknown phospholipid and one unknown aminolipid. The DNA G+C content was 37.4 mol%. Phylogenetic inference and phenotypic properties indicated that strain DS-12T represents a novel species of the genus Flavobacterium , for which the name Flavobacterium ummariense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DS-12T ( = CCM 7847T  = MTCC 10766T). An emended description of Flavobacterium ceti is also given.

A Gram-staining-negative, dark orange, strictly aerobic bacterium, designated strain HP12T, was isolated from a tidal flat at Hampyeong in South Korea. Cells were moderately halotolerant, catalase- and oxidase-positive, non-motile rods. Growth was observed at 5–35 °C (optimum, 25 °C), at pH 6.0–8.5 (optimum, pH 7.0–7.5), and in the presence of 1–6 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1–2 %). The major cellular fatty acids were summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH), iso-C17 : 0 3-OH, C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G and iso-C15 : 0. The polar lipid pattern indicated the presence of phosphatidylethanolamine and two unidentified lipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 37.1 mol% and the predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone-6. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the novel strain formed a tight phyletic lineage with members of the genus Arenibacter and was most closely related to Arenibacter palladensis KMM 3961T, Arenibacter troitsensis KMM 3674T and Arenibacter echinorum KMM 6032T, with 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 98.1 %, 98.0 % and 97.8 %, respectively. However, the DNA–DNA relatedness values between strain HP12T and A. palladensis JCM 13509T, A. troitsensis KCTC 12362T and A. echinorum KCTC 22013T were only 20.2±0.3 %, 22.6±0.6 % and 9.1±2.6 %, respectively. On the basis of phenotypic and molecular features, strain HP12T represents a novel species of the genus Arenibacter , for which the name Arenibacter hampyeongensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HP12T ( = KACC 16193T = JCM 17788T).

A Gram-negative, strictly aerobic, gliding motility, none-spore forming, yellow, rods bacterial strain, designated XS-5T, was isolated from rhizosphere soil of Suaeda salsa, in Tumd Right Banner, Inner Mongolia, PR China. A phylogenetic tree based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences and the phylogenomic tree both showed that strain XS-5T clustered with Flavobacterium beibuense F44-8T (shared 97.2 % of 16S rRNA gene similarity) and Flavobacterium rakeshii FCS-5T (97.6 %), and shared <96.0 % of 16S rRNA gene similarities with all other type strains. Strain XS-5T contained MK-6 as the major respiratory quinone. Its major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid and an unidentified lipid; and the major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH, C16 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 3-OH, Summed feature 3 (iso-C15 : 0 2-OH and/or C16 : 1  ω7c), and Summed feature 9 (iso-C17 : 1  ω9c and/or C16 : 0 10-methyl). The genome consisted of a 3 985 855 bp circular chromosome, with a G+C content of 37.9 mol%, predicting 3616 coding sequences genes, 45 tRNA genes and three rRNA operons. The average nucleotide identity, amino acid identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values of strain XS-5T to F. beibuense F44-8T and F. rakeshii FCS-5T were 79.2 and 79.2 %, 81.7 and 81.6 %, 22.3 and 22.2 %, respectively. The results of phylogenetic, physiological and biochemical tests allowed the discrimination of strain XS-5T from its phylogenetic relatives. Flavobacterium alkalisoli sp. nov. is therefore proposed with strain XS-5T (=CGMCC 1.17077T=KCTC 72459T) as the type strain.

A novel type of freshwater bacterium was isolated from the prealpine mesotrophic Starnberger See (Bavaria, southern Germany). Cells of strain 382T were Gram-negative and rod-shaped, motile and creamy-white. The isolate was strictly aerobic, catalase- and oxidase-positive, and grew at pH values of 6–9 (optimum, pH 7) and temperatures of 10–37 °C (optimum, 28 °C). The genomic G+C content of strain 382T was 64.1 mol%. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses, strain 382T belongs to the family Sphingomonadaceae and clusters within the genus Sphingomonas . Sphingomonas histidinilytica UM 2T and Sphingomonas wittichii DSM 6014T were the closest relatives, as indicated by the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities (97.1 % and 96.8 %, respectively). Sphingomonas paucimobilis DSM 1098T (the type species of the genus Sphingomonas ) exhibited 95.3 % sequence similarity. This affiliation of strain 382T to the genus Sphingomonas is confirmed by the presence of Q-10 as the major respiratory quinone, two sphingoglycolipids, C14 : 0 2-OH as the major 2-hydroxy fatty acid and sym-homospermidine as the major polyamine. The main cellular fatty acids of strain 382T were C18 : 1ω7c (39 %), C16 : 1ω7c (21 %), C16 : 0 (10 %) and C14 : 0 2-OH (10 %). Based on the phylogenetic distance from other species of the genus Sphingomonas and its unusually high C16 : 1ω7c content, strain 382T represents a novel species of the genus Sphingomonas , for which the name Sphingomonas starnbergensis is proposed. The type strain is 382T ( = DSM 25077T  = LMG 26763T).

A novel exopolysaccharide-producing bacterium, designated strain k53T, was isolated from sediment from the Arabia Sea, Indian Ocean. The strain was Gram-negative, motile, strictly aerobic, oxidase-positive and catalase-positive, and required Na+ for growth. Its major isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-8 (Q-8), and its cellular fatty acid profile mainly consisted of C16 : 1ω7c, C16 : 0 and C18 : 1ω7c. The DNA G+C content was 43 mol%. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis suggested that strain k53T is a member of the genus Pseudoalteromonas . Strain k53T exhibited close phylogenetic affinity to Pseudoalteromonas lipolytica LMEB 39T (98.0% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity) and Pseudoalteromonas donghaensis HJ51T (97.3 %).The DNA–DNA reassociation values between strain k53T and P. lipolytica JCM 15903T and P. donghaensis LMG 24469T were 17 % and 12 %, respectively. Owing to the significant differences in phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, and phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence and DNA–DNA relatedness data, the isolate merits classification as a representative of a novel species, for which the name Pseudoalteromonas arabiensis is proposed. The type strain of this species is k53T ( = JCM 17292T = NCIMB 14688T).

A novel Gram-staining-negative, strictly aerobic bacterium, designated BS14T, was isolated from a marine tidal flat of the South Sea in Korea. Colonies were opaque, white, smooth and circular on marine agar. Cells were moderately halophilic, non-motile rods showing catalase- and oxidase-positive reactions. Growth of strain BS14T was observed at 5–40 °C (optimum: 30 °C), pH 6.5–9.5 (optimum: 7.0–7.5) and 0–10 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum: 1–1.5 %). The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 61.6 mol%. Strain BS14T contained ubiquinone-10 (Q-10) as the sole respiratory quinone and summed feature 8 (comprising C18 : 1ω7c and/or C18 : 1ω6c), C18 : 0 3-OH, C10 : 0 3-OH and C18 : 0 as the major fatty acids. The polar lipid pattern comprised phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, an unidentified aminolipid, an unidentified phospholipid and an unidentified polar lipid. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain BS14T formed a tight phylogenetic lineage with Defluviimonas denitrificans D9-3T with a bootstrap value of 100 %. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain BS14T and D. denitrificans D9-3T was 97.4 % and their DNA–DNA relatedness was 19.1±3.6 %. Based on the phenotypic and genotypic studies, strain BS14T represents a novel species of the genus Defluviimonas , for which the name Defluviimonas aestuarii sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BS14T ( = KACC 16442T = JCM 18630T). An emended description of the genus Defluviimonas Foesel et al. 2011 is also proposed.

Three Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped with single polar flagellum, yellow-pigmented bacteria, designated strains XH031T, XH038-3 and XH80-1, were isolated from deep-sea sediment of the South Pacific Gyre (41° 51′ S 153° 6′ W) during the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 329. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the isolates belonged to the genus Luteimonas and showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with Luteimonas aestuarii B9T (96.95 %), Luteimonas huabeiensis HB2T (96.93 %) and Xanthomonas cucurbitae LMG 690T (96.92 %). The DNA G+C contents of the three isolates were 70.2–73.9 mol%. The major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, iso-C11 : 0 and C16 : 010-methyl and/or iso-C17 : 1ω9c. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-8 (Q-8). The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and one unknown phospholipid. On the basis of data from polyphasic analysis, the three isolates represent a novel species of the genus Luteimonas , for which the name Luteimonas abyssi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is XH031T ( = DSM 25880T = CGMCC 1.12611T).
