A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated CAU 1488T, was isolated from tidal flat sediment, and its taxonomic position was investigated using a polyphasic approach. The organism grew optimally at a temperature of 30 °C, at pH 7.0–7.5 and in the presence of 0–6 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain CAU 1488T forms a lineage distinct from Ruegeria marisrubri ZGT 118T (97.9 %), Ruegeria marina ZH17T (97.6 %), Ruegeria lacuscaerulensis ITI 1157T (97.5 %), Ruegeria pomeroyi DSS-3T (97.1 %), Ruegeria profundi ZGT108T (97.0 %), Ruegeria intermedia CC-GIMAT-2T (96.8 %), Ruegeria atlantica CECT 4292T (96.7 %) and Ruegeria kandeliae J95T (95.9 %). Genome sequencing revealed that CAU 1488T had a genome size of 4.23 Mbp and a G+C content of 63.2 mol%. Overall genome related indexes including average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values were 75.0–83.0 % and 26.2 %, which are below the cutoffs of 95 and 70 %, respectively, indicating that strain CAU 1488T represents a distinct species from the members of the genus Ruegeria . The predominant quinone was ubiquinone-10 (Q-10). The major fatty acids were summed feature 8 (C18 : 1  ω7c/ω6c; 60.7 %) and its polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine and unidentified aminolipids. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genomic data, strain CAU 1488T constitutes a novel species of the genus Ruegeria , for which the name Ruegeria sediminis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CAU 1488T (=KCTC 62996T=NBRC 113693T).

A novel bacterial strain designated CJ70T was isolated from tidal flat sediment in Korea. A polyphasic approach was used to identify this strain taxonomically. The isolate was Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, yellow-pigmented, rod-shaped and non-motile. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain CJ70T was related most closely to Stakelama pacifica JLT832T with 95.7 % similarity and formed an independent phyletic line from recognized species of the genus Sphingomonas , comprising a clade with Stakelama pacifica , which is the only recognized species of the genus Stakelama . The predominant cellular fatty acids of strain CJ70T were C18 : 1ω7c (60.0 %), C16 : 0 (21.2 %) and C14 : 0 2-OH (5.8 %). The major isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-10. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 61.4 mol%. The results obtained from this study suggested that strain CJ70T represents a novel species of the genus Stakelama , for which the name Stakelama sediminis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CJ70T ( = KACC 16559T = JCM 18079T).

A novel Gram-stain-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped and non-motile bacterial strain, designated as 4C16AT, was isolated from a tidal flat sediment and characterized by using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Strain 4C16AT was found to grow at 10–40 °C (optimum, 28 °C), at pH 5.0–10.0 (optimum, pH 6.0–7.0) and in 0–6 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain 4C16AT fell into the genus Roseibium , and shared the highest identity of 98.9 % with the closest type strain Roseibium suaedae KACC 13772T and less than 98.0 % identity with other type strains of recognized species within this genus. The phylogenomic analysis indicated that strain 4C16AT formed an independent branch within this genus. The 28.6 % digital DNA–DNA hybridization estimate and 85.0 % average nucleotide identity between strains 4C16AT and R. suaedae KACC 13772T were the highest, but still far below their respective threshold for species definition, implying that strain 4C16AT should represent a novel genospecies. The predominant cellular fatty acid was summed feature 8; the polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine; the respiratory quinones were Q-9 and Q-10. The genomic DNA G+C content was 59.8mol %. Based on phylogenetic analyses and phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strain 4C16AT is concluded to represent a novel species of the genus Roseibium , for which the name Roseibium litorale sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the species is 4C16AT (=GDMCC 1.1932T=KACC 22078T). We also propose the reclassification of Labrenzia polysiphoniae as Roseibium polysiphoniae comb. nov. and ‘Labrenzia callyspongiae’ as Roseibium callyspongiae sp. nov.

A Gram-stain-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped (1.8–4.4×0.5–0.7 µm) and motile marine bacterium, designated as MEBiC13590T, was isolated from tidal flat sediment sampled at Incheon City, on the west coast of the Republic of Korea. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain MEBiC13590T showed high similarity to Oricola cellulosilytica CC-AMH-0T (98.2 %), followed by Oceaniradius stylonematis StC1T (97.5 %); however, it clustered with Oricola cellulosilytica . The phylogenomic tree inferred by the up-to-date bacterial core gene set suggested that strain MEBiC13590T shared a phyletic line with Oricola cellulosilytica . Average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values (75.0 and 19.3 %, respectively) between strain MEBiC13590T and Oricola cellulosilytica CC-AMH-0T were below the respective species delineation cutoffs. Growth was observed at 22–50 °C (optimum, 45 °C), at pH 5–9 (optimum, pH 7) and with 1–6 % (optimum, 3 %) NaCl. The predominant cellular fatty acids were C16 : 0 (7.6 %), C18 : 0 (12.2 %), 11-methyl C18 : 1 ω7c (5.7 %), C19 : 0 cyclo ω6c and summed feature 8 (comprising C18 : 1 ω7c and/or C18 : 1 ω6c; 38 %). The DNA G+C content was 63.5 mol%. The major respiratory quinone was Q-10. Several phenotypic characteristics such as growth temperature, oxygen requirement, enzyme activities of urease, gelatinase, lipase (C14), α-chymotrypsin, acid phosphatase, β-galactosidase, β-glucosidase etc. differentiate strain MEBiC13590T from Oricola cellulosilytica CC-AMH-0T. Based on this polyphasic taxonomic data, strain MEBiC13590T should be classified as representing a novel species in the genus Oricola for which the name Oricola thermophila sp. nov. is proposed . The type strain is MEBiC13590T (=KCCM 43313T=JCM 33661T).
