Strain T13T, isolated from forest soil in Jeollabuk-do, South Korea, exhibited antibiotic production on yeast extract-malt extract-glucose (YMG) medium containing magnesium chloride as a trace mineral, and inhibited the growth of Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Paenibacillus larvae, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger. Growth occurred at 15–45 °C, pH 4–11 and in the presence of up to 2 % (w/v) NaCl. Biochemical analyses indicated that the predominant menaquinones produced by this strain were MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H8); small amounts of MK-10(H2) and MK-10(H4) were also detected. The polar lipid profile comprised diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine, and the cell-wall peptidoglycan contained ll-diaminopimelic acid, glutamic acid, alanine and glycine. Whole-cell hydrolysates contained glucose, galactose, ribose and rhamnose. The fatty-acid profile of strain T13T was made up predominantly of iso- and anteiso-branched fatty acids. Genetic analyses demonstrated that strain T13T is closely related to Streptomyces gramineus JR-43T (98.29 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), S. graminisoli JR-19T (97.99 %), S. rhizophilus JR-41T (97.86 %), S. longwoodensis LMG 20096T (97.84 %), S. graminifolii JL-22T (97.79 %) and S. yaanensis Z4T (97.56 %), and DNA–DNA hybridization yielded relatedness values of 35.27–43.42 % when T13T was compared to related strains. The results of morphological, chemotaxonomic, phylogenetic and phenotypic analyses confirm that this strain represents a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces olivicoloratus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is T13T ( = KEMB 9005-210T = KACC 18227T = NBRC 110901T).

An actinomycete, strain RI109-Li102T, was isolated from a lichen sample obtained from Rishiri Island in Japan. Cells of strain RI109-Li102T were Gram-positive, aerobic and non-motile and formed bud-like spore chains. The isolate grew with 0–3 % (w/v) NaCl, at pH 5–9 and at 10–30 °C (optimum 30 °C). The whole-cell hydrolysate contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, arabinose and galactose. The predominant menaquinone was MK-8(H4) and the diagnostic phospholipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol and diphosphatidylglycerol. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C16 : 1 H. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain RI109-Li102T was most closely related to Actinomycetospora corticicola 014-5T (99.0 % rRNA gene sequence similarity) and Actinomycetospora chiangmaiensis YIM 0006T (98.4 %). However, DNA–DNA hybridization assays, as well as physiological and biochemical analyses, showed that strain RI109-Li102T could be differentiated from its closest phylogenetic relatives. It is proposed that strain RI109-Li102T ( = NBRC 106356T  = KCTC 19782T) be classified as the type strain of a novel species, with the name Actinomycetospora rishiriensis sp. nov.
