A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, coccus-shaped, catalase- and oxidase-positive, facultatively anaerobic and pink-pigmented bacterium, designated strain CQN31T, was isolated from sediment of Changqiaohai Lake, Yunnan Province, China. Growth occurred at 4–45 °C (optimum, 37 °C), at pH 6.5–9.5 (optimum, pH 8.0) and with 0–1 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0 %). C18 : 1 ω7c/C18 : 1 ω6c and C16 : 0 were the predominant fatty acids. Phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), phosphatidyldimethylethanolamine (PME) and one unidentified aminolipid (AL) were the major polar lipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 71.5 %. 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons indicated that strain CQN31T shared 96.8 % similarity with Roseomonas wooponensis JCM 19527T and 95.9 % with R. terricola EM0302T. Digital DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain CQN31T and Roseomonas stagni DSM 19981T, R. rosea DSM 14916T and R. mucosa NCTC 13291T were 21.0, 19.4 and 19.8 %, respectively. Average amino acid identity and average nucleotide identity values between strain CQN31T and R. stagni DSM 19981T, R. rosea DSM 14916T and R. mucosa NCTC 13291T were 73.7, 63.4 and 61.9 %, and 79.2, 77.1 and 77.5%, respectively. Distinct morphological, physiological and genotypic differences from previously described taxa support the classification of strain CQN31T as a representative of a novel species in the genus Roseomonas , for which the name Roseomonas bella sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CQN31T (=KCTC 62447T=MCCC 1H00309T).

Strain JC207T was isolated from a deep (265 m) sea sediment, and appeared as dark yellow colonies on agar plates with cells staining Gram-negative. Catalase, oxidase and caseinase were positive, while chitinase, gelatinase and amylase were negative. Major (>5 %) fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 1ω9c, iso-C16 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 3-OH, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH, iso-C14 : 0 and iso-C15 : 1G. Strain JC207T contained phosphatidylethanolamine as the major polar lipid, with minor amounts of five unidentified lipids. A bacterial hopane derivative, diplopterol and adenosylhopane were the major hopanoids. Genomic DNA G+C content was 47.5 mol%. 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons indicated that strain JC207T represented a member of the genus Salinimicrobium within the family Flavobacteriaceae of the phylum Bacteroidetes . Strain JC207T had sequence similarity with Salinimicrobium terrae YIM-C338T (98 %), Salinimicrobium xinjiangense BH206T (97.6 %) and other members of the genus Salinimicrobium (<96.8 %). However, strain JC207T showed an average of 23.6±4 and 37±4 relatedness (based on DNA–DNA hybridization) with Salinimicrobium terrae CGMCC 1.6308T ( = YIM-C338T) and Salinimicrobium xinjiangense KCTC 12883T ( = BH206T), respectively. Morphological, physiological and genotypic differences from the previously described taxa support the classification of strain JC207T as a representative of a novel species in the genus Salinimicrobium , for which the name Salinimicrobium sediminis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is JC207T ( = KCTC 32444T = CGMCC 1.12641T).

A novel Gram-stain-negative, aerobic and rod-shaped halophilic archaeon, designated HD8-45T, was isolated from the red brine of salted brown alga Laminaria produced at Dalian, PR China. According to the results of 16S rRNA gene and rpoB′ gene sequence comparisons, strain HD8-45T showed the highest sequence similarity to the corresponding genes of Salinirussus salinus YGH44T (95.1 and 85.2 % similarities, respectively), Halovenus aranensis EB27T (91.2 and 86.0 % similarities, respectively). The low sequence similarity and the phylogeny implied the novel generic status of strain HD8-45T. Genomic relatedness analyses showed that strain HD8-45T were clearly distinguished from other species in the order Halobacteriales , with average nucleotide identity, amino acid identity and in silico DNA–DNA hybridization values not more than 75.1, 65.6 and 21.5 %. The polar lipid pattern contained phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol phosphate methyl ester, two major glycolipids and two minor glycolipids. The two major glycolipids and a minor glycolipid were chromatographically identical to disulfated mannosyl glucosyl diether, sulfated mannosyl glucosyl diether and mannosyl glucosyl diether, respectively. The major respiratory quinones were menaquinone MK-8 and MK-8(H2). The DNA G+C content was 62.0 mol% (Tm ) and 61.9 mol% (genome). All these results showed that strain HD8-45T represents a novel species of a new genus in the order Halobacteriales , for which the name Salinibaculum litoreum gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Salinibaculum litoreum is HD8-45T (=CGMCC 1.15328T=JCM 31107T).

A bacterial strain, designated WCA-9-b2T, was isolated from the caecal content of an 18-week-old obese C57BL/6NTac male mouse. According to phenotypic analyses, the isolate was rod-shaped, strictly anaerobic, spore-forming, non-motile and Gram-stain-positive, under the conditions tested. Colonies were irregular and non-pigmented. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that the isolate belonged to the order Clostridiales with Dorea longicatena ATCC 27755T (94.9 % sequence identity), Ruminococcus gnavus ATCC 29149T (94.8%) and Clostridium scindens ATCC 35704T (94.3%) being the closest relatives. Whole genome sequencing showed an average nucleotide identity <74.23 %, average amino acid identity <64.52–74.67 % and percentage of conserved proteins values <50 % against the nine closest relatives ( D. longicatena , Ruminococcus gnavus , C. scindens , Dorea formicigenerans , Ruminococcus lactaris , Clostridium hylemonae , Merdimonas faecis , Faecalicatena contorta and Faecalicatena fissicatena ). The genome-based G+C content of genomic DNA was 44.4 mol%. The major cellular fatty acids were C16 : 0 (24.5%), C18 : 1 cis9 (19.8 %), C16 : 0 DMA (11.7%), C18 : 0 (8.4%) and C14 : 0 (6.6%). Respiratory quinones were not detected. The predominant metabolic end products of glucose fermentation were acetate and succinate. Production of CO2 and H2 were detected. Based on these data, we propose that strain WCA-9-b2T represents a novel species within a novel genus, for which the name Sporofaciens musculi gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is WCA-9-b2T (=DSM 106039T=CECT 30156T).

Two bacterial strains (JC167T and JC168) were isolated from a soil sample collected from Mandpam, Tamilnadu, India. Colonies of both strains were orange and cells Gram-stain-positive. Cells were small rods, and formed terminal endospores of ellipsoidal to oval shape. Both strains were positive for catalase, oxidase and hydrolysis of starch/gelatin, and negative for chitin hydrolysis, H2S production, indole production and nitrate reduction activity. Major fatty acids of both strains (>5 %) were anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0, iso-C14 : 0 and C16 : 0 with minor (<5 but >1 %) amounts of iso-C17 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0 B/iso-C17 : 0 I and C16 : 1ω11c. Diphosphatydilglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol were the major polar lipids of both strains. Cell wall amino acids were l-alanine, d-alanine, d-glutamic acid and meso-diaminopimelic acid. β-Carotene and five unidentified carotenoids were present in both strains. Mean genomic DNA G+C content was 53.4±1 mol% and the two strains were closely related (mean DNA–DNA hybridization >90 %). 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons of both strains indicated that they represent species of the genus Bacillus within the family Bacillaceae of the phylum Firmicutes . Both strains had a sequence similarity of 97.6 % with Bacillus saliphilus 6AGT and <96.8 % with other members of the genus Bacillus . Sequence similarity between strain JC167T and 168 was 100 %. Strain JC167T showed 25.8±1 % reassociation (based on DNA–DNA hybridization) with B. saliphilus DSM 15402T ( = 6AGT). Distinct morphological, physiological and genotypic differences from previously described taxa support the classification of strain JC167T as a representative of a novel species of the genus Bacillus , for which the name Bacillus luteus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is JC167T ( = KCTC 33100T = LMG 27257T).

Members of the genus Geobacillus within the phylum Firmicutes are Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, endospore-forming, obligate thermophiles. In 2016, the genus Geobacillus was subdivided into two genera based on whole-genome approaches. The new genus, Parageobacillus , comprises five genomospecies. In this study, we recommend the reclassification of two Geobacillus species, Geobacillus galactosidasius and Geobacillus yumthangensis , into the genus Parageobacillus . We have applied whole genome approaches to estimate the phylogenetic relatedness among the 18 Geobacillus and Parageobacillus type strains for which genome sequences are currently publicly available. The phylogenomic metrics AAI (average amino acid identity), ANI (average nucleotide identity) and dDDH (digital DNA–DNA hybridization) denoted that the type strains of G. galactosidasius and G. yumthangensis belong to the genus Parageobacillus . Furthermore, a phylogeny based on comparison of the 16S rRNA gene sequences, recN gene sequences and core genes identified from the whole-genome analyses designated that the type strains of G. galactosidasius and G. yumthangensis belong in the genus Parageobacillus . With these findings, we consequently propose that G. galactosidasius and G. yumthangensis should be reclassified as Parageobacillus galactosidasius comb. nov. and Parageobacillus yumthangensis comb. nov.

A novel Gram-stain-negative, non-endospore-forming, motile, and aerobic bacterial strain, M105T, was isolated from coral Porites lutea, and was subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. Global alignment based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that M105T shares the highest sequence identity of 94.5 % with Aliikangiella marina GYP-15T. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and average amino acid identity (AAI) between M105T and A. marina GYP-15T was 69.8 and 71.6 %, respectively. On the basis of the results of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, phylogenetic, phylogenomic, and comparative genomic analyses, it is concluded that M105T should represent a novel species in the genus Aliikangiella , for which the name Aliikangiella coralliicola sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is M105T (=MCCC 1K03773T= KCTC 72442T). Furthermore, the family Kangiellaceae was classified into two families on the basis of phylogenetic, phylogenomic, polar lipid profile and motility variations. The novel family Pleioneaceae fam. nov. is proposed to accommodate the genera Aliikangiella and Pleionea .
