Two Gram-negative, aerobic and rod-shaped or ovoid bacterial strains with different colony colours (greyish yellow and moderate orange), designated J-MR2-YT and J-MR2-O, were isolated from a tidal flat in the South Sea of South Korea. The two novel strains grew optimally at 35–37 °C. Strains J-MR2-YT and J-MR2-O showed no difference in their 16S rRNA gene sequences, and the mean DNA–DNA relatedness between them was 94 %. Phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strains J-MR2-YT and J-MR2-O clustered consistently with the type strains of Loktanella soesokkakensis , L. hongkongensis and L. cinnabarina , with which it exhibited 97.83–99.06 % sequence similarity. Sequence similarities to the type strains of the other recognized species of the genus Loktanella were 94.01–96.26 %. Both strains contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone, C18 : 1ω7c as the major fatty acid and phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, one unidentified glycolipid and one unidentified aminolipid as the major polar lipids. The DNA G+C contents of strains J-MR2-YT and J-MR2-O were 68.1 and 68.4 mol%, respectively, and DNA–DNA relatedness values with the type strains of L. soesokkakensis , L. hongkongensis and L. cinnabarina were 19–37 %. Differential phenotypic properties, together with their phylogenetic and genetic distinctiveness, revealed that the two novel strains are separated from other species of the genus Loktanella . On the basis of the data presented, strains J-MR2-YT and J-MR2-O are proposed to represent a novel species of the genus Loktanella , for which the name Loktanella variabilis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is J-MR2-YT ( = KCTC 42074T = CECT 8572T).

Parvularcula flava was proposed as a novel member of genus Parvularcula in 2016. Some time earlier, Aquisalinus flavus has been proposed as a novel species of a novel genus named Aquisalinus . When comparing the 16S rRNA gene sequences of type strains P. flava NH6-79T and A. flavus D11M-2T, they showed 97.9 % sequence identity, much higher than the sequence identities 92.7–94.3 % between P. flava NH6-79T and type strains in the genus Parvularcula , indicating that the later proposed novel taxon Parvularcula flava need reclassification. The phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and genome sequences both showed that P. flava NH6-79T and A. flavus D11M-2T formed a separated branch away from strains in the genera Parvularcula , Marinicaulis and Amphiplicatus . The average amino acid identity and average nucleotide identity values of P. flava NH6-79T and A. flavus D11M-2T were 87.9 and 85.0 %, respectively, much higher than the values between P. flava NH6-79T and other closely related type strains (54.3 %–58.1 % and 68.6–70.4 %, respectively). P. flava NH6-79T and A. flavus D11M-2T also contained summed feature 8 (C18 : 1  ω6c and/or C18 : 1  ω7c) and C16 : 0 as major fatty acids, distinguishing them from other closely related taxa. Based on the results of the phylogenetic, comparative genomic and phenotypic analyses, Parvularcula flava should be reclassified as Aquisalinus luteolus nom. nov. and the description of genus Aquisalinus is emended.

A novel actinobacterium, strain BC637T, was isolated from a biodeteriogenic biofilm sample collected in 2009 in the Saint Callixstus Roman catacomb. The strain was found to belong to the genus Kribbella by analysis of the 16S rRNA gene. Phylogenetic analysis using the 16S rRNA gene and the gyrB, rpoB, relA, recA and atpD concatenated gene sequences showed that strain BC637T was most closely related to the type strains of Kribbella lupini and Kribbella endophytica . DNA–DNA hybridization experiments confirmed that strain BC637T is a genomic species that is distinct from its closest phylogenetic relatives, K. endophytica DSM 23718T (63 % DNA relatedness) and K. lupini LU14T (63 % DNA relatedness). Physiological comparisons showed that strain BC637T is phenotypically distinct from the type strains of K. endophytica and K. lupini . Thus, strain BC637T represents the type strain of a novel species, for which the name Kribella italica sp. nov. is proposed ( = DSM 28967T = NRRL B-59155T).

Comparative phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genetic analysis revealed significant similarities among strains of the genera Tepidiphilus and Petrobacter . Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences and DNA–DNA relatedness of the type strains Tepidiphilus margaritifer N2-214T and Petrobacter succinatimandens 4BONT showed sequence similarity of 98.9 % and less than 40 % relatedness, indicating that these strains represent different species of same genus. Both strains had phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine and diphosphatidylglycerol as major polar lipids. Their fatty acid profiles were almost identical, with the predominant fatty acids C16 : 0, C17 : 0 cyclo and C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c. In view of this, we propose to transfer the member of the genus Petrobacter to the genus Tepidiphilus as Tepidiphilus succinatimandens comb. nov. and to emend the description of the genus Tepidiphilus . Further, a novel bacterium, strain JHK30T, was isolated from a terrestrial hot spring located at Jharkhand, India, and was identified following a polyphasic approach. Cells were non-sporulating, aerobic, Gram-stain-negative rods and motile by a single polar flagellum. Optimum temperature for growth was 50–55 °C at pH 6.5–7.0. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed 99.71 % similarity with P. succinatimandens 4BONT ( = DSM 15512T) and 98.71 % with T. margaritifer N2-214T ( = DSM 15129T). However, DNA–DNA relatedness of strain JHK30T with these two type strains was well below 70 %. The DNA G+C base composition was 66.1 mol%. Strain JHK30T represents a novel species of the genus Tepidiphilus for which the name Tepidiphilus thermophilus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is JHK30T ( = JCM 19170T = LMG 27587T= DSM 27220T).

Two strains, designated K2814T and K282, were isolated from a compost pile in Japan. These strains were Gram-stain-variable, aerobic, motile and endospore-forming rods. The strains produced a characteristic brown non-diffusible pigment. The 16S rRNA gene sequences of the strains were 100 % identical and had high similarity to that of Brevibacillus levickii LMG 22481T (97.3 %). Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that these strains belong to the genus Brevibacillus . Strains K2814T and K282 contained meso-diaminopimelic acid in their cell walls. Strains K2814T and K282 contained MK-7 (96.0 and 97.2 %, respectively) and MK-8 (4.0 and 2.8 %, respectively) as the major and minor menaquinones, respectively. Their major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0. The DNA G+C contents of strains K2814T and K282 were 48.8 and 49.8 mol%, respectively. Polar lipids of strain K2814T were composed of phosphatidyl-N-methylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified phospholipid, three unidentified polar lipids, an unidentified aminophospholipid and an unidentified aminolipid. The level of DNA–DNA relatedness between strains K2814T and K282 was 99 or 100 %, and levels between strain K2814T and the type strains of seven related species of the genus Brevibacillus , including Brevibacillus levickii LMG 22481T, were below 59 %. From the chemotaxonomic and physiological data and the levels of DNA–DNA relatedness, these two strains should be classified as representing a novel species of the genus Brevibacillus , for which the name Brevibacillus fulvus sp. nov. (type strain K2814T = JCM 18162T = ATCC BAA-2417T = DSM 25523T) is proposed.
