A Gram-negative, non-motile and rod-, oval- or coccoid-shaped strain, DSW-17T, was isolated from seawater of the East Sea, Korea, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. Strain DSW-17T grew optimally at pH 7.0–8.0 and 25 °C. It contained Q-10 as the predominant ubiquinone and C18 : 1 ω7c as the major fatty acid. Major polar lipids were phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and an unidentified glycolipid. The DNA G+C content was 65.2 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain DSW-17T was phylogenetically most closely affiliated to the genus Jannaschia. Strain DSW-17T exhibited 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values of 96.5 % with the type strains of three recognized species of the genus Jannaschia. DNA–DNA relatedness data and differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic distinctiveness, demonstrated that strain DSW-17T is distinguishable from the recognized species of the genus Jannaschia. On the basis of phenotypic, phylogenetic and genetic data, strain DSW-17T was classified in the genus Jannaschia as a member of a novel species, for which the name Jannaschia donghaensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DSW-17T (=KCTC 12862T=JCM 14563T).

A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain Y9T, was isolated from a soil sample collected in Ningxia Province in China and was characterized to determine its taxonomic position. Strain Y9T contained Q-8 as the predominant ubiquinone. Major fatty acid components were summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH) and C16 : 0. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol. The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strain Y9T was 68.7 mol%. A phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the strain fell within the evolutionary radiation encompassed by the genus Massilia. Levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain Y9T and the type strains of recognized Massilia species ranged from 95.2 to 98.2 %, the highest values being with Massilia albidiflava 45T (98.2 %) and Massilia lutea 101T (98.0 %). However, levels of DNA–DNA relatedness between strain Y9T and M. albidiflava KCTC 12343T and M. lutea KCTC 12345T were 37 and 26 %, respectively. Strain Y9T was clearly differentiated from its nearest phylogenetic relatives in the genus Massilia based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic properties. Therefore, strain Y9T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Massilia, for which the name Massilia flava sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Y9T ( = CGMCC 1.10685T  = KCTC 23585T).
