A Gram-staining-negative, non-motile, strictly aerobic bacterium, strain X12M-4T, was isolated from Xiaochaidan Lake, a salt lake (salinity 9.9 %, w/w) in Qaidam basin, Qinghai Province, China. Its taxonomic position was determined by using a polyphasic approach. Strain X12M-4T was catalase- and oxidase-positive. Cells were rod-shaped, 0.5–0.8 μm wide and 1.1–1.6 μm long. Growth was observed in the presence of 0–11.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 5.0–6.0 %) and at 15–40 °C (optimum, 25 °C) and pH 6.5–9.5 (optimum, pH 7.0). No growth occurred at 10 °C or 45 °C. Strain X12M-4T contained C18 : 1ω7c, C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c and C16 : 0 as the major fatty acids (>10.0 %). The predominant respiratory quinone was Q-10.The major polar lipids were phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidglycerol, an unknown aminolipid and an unidentified lipid. The DNA G+C content was 65.7 mol% (determined using T m). Strain X12M-4T showed highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to Maritimibacter alkaliphilus HTCC2654T (96.7 %), Roseibacterium elongatum DSM 19469T (96.4 %), Tropicimonas aquimaris DPG-21T (95.6 %), ‘Roseibacterium beibuensis’ JLT1202r (95.6 %) and Tropicimonas sediminicola M97T (95.5 %) and < 95.5 % to others. Phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain X12M-4T formed a robust cluster with M. alkaliphilus HTCC2654T. On the basis of the data, it is concluded that strain X12M-4T represents a novel species of the genus Maritimibacter, for which the name Maritimibacter lacisalsi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is X12M-4T ( = CGMCC 1.12922T = JCM 30555T). To accommodate the novel species, the description of the genus Maritimibacter was emended.

A Gram-stain-negative bacterium, strain TS-T30T, was isolated from a saline lake (Lake Tuosu) in Qaidam basin, Qinghai province, China, and its taxonomic position was determined by using a polyphasic approach. Cells were non-spore-forming rods, non-motile, 0.8–1.4 μm wide and 1.9–4.0 μm long. Strain TS-T30T was strictly heterotrophic and aerobic. Catalase- and oxidase-positive. Growth was observed in the presence of 0.5–11.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 3.0 %), and at 10–35 °C (optimum 25 °C) and pH 6.5–10.0 (optimum pH 8.5). Strain TS-T30T contained C18 : 1ω7c as the only predominant fatty acid. The major respiratory quinone was Q-10. The DNA G+C content was 62 mol% (T m). Phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain TS-T30T formed a distinct lineage that was independent of other most closely related genera: Lutimaribacter (95.2–95.9 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities), Poseidonocella (95.4 %), Ruegeria (92.8–94.9 %), Marivita (93.6–94.9 %), Seohaeicola (94.7 %), Sediminimonas (94.7 %), Shimia (93.9–94.7 %), Oceanicola (92.6–94.5 %) and Roseicyclus (94.5 %). The major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, one unidentified phospholipid and an unknown aminolipid; phosphatidylcholine was not detected. These data demonstrated that strain TS-T30T represents a novel species of a new genus in the family Rhodobacteraceae, for which the name Lacimonas salitolerans gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the type species is TS-T30T ( = CGMCC 1.12477T = NBRC 110969T).

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, aerobic bacterium, strain 13-93-B1T, was isolated from seawater off Jeju Island, Republic of Korea, and was subjected to polyphasic taxonomic study. Cells formed ivory colonies and were ovoid to rod-shaped. The strain was catalase-positive, oxidase-negative and grew optimally at 30 °C, in the presence of 1–2 % (w/v) NaCl and at pH 7.0–7.5. It did not synthesize bacteriochlorophyll a. Neighbour-joining, maximum-likelihood and maximum-parsimony phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain 13-93-B1T clustered with the type strain Donghicola eburneus SW-277T (97.0 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity). DNA–DNA hybridization between strain 13-93-B1T and D. eburneus KCTC 12735T was 33.1 ± 1.4 % (35.2 ± 2.8 % in a reciprocal experiment). The predominant cellular fatty acid was summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω7c/C18 : 1ω6c; 76.9 %). The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone Q-10 and polar lipids detected in strain 13-93-B1T were phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid and unidentified lipids. The DNA G+C content of strain 13-93-B1T was 60.4 mol%. Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data presented, strain 13-93-B1T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Donghicola, for which the name Donghicola tyrosinivorans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 13-93-B1T ( = DSM 100212T = KCTC 42571T)

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 novel thermophilic and endospore-forming Gram-positive bacterium capable of assimilating and isomerizing l-ribose was isolated from a volcanic area in Likupang, Indonesia. The isolate, RI-39T, was able to grow at high temperatures (37–60 °C); optimum growth was observed at pH 6.5 and 45 °C. The strain contained MK-7 (87 %) as the main respiratory quinone and had a DNA G+C content of 51 mol%. The major cellular fatty acids of the isolate were iso-C16 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0 and the predominant polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and lysyl-phosphatidylglycerol. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the isolate represents an evolutionary lineage that is distinct from those of other Cohnella species. Based on morphological, physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics and 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, it is proposed that strain RI-39T represents a novel species, Cohnella laeviribosi sp. nov. The type strain is RI-39T (=KCTC 3987T =KCCM 10653PT =CCUG 52217T).
