The data on the taxonomy and distribution of bacteria of the family Micrococcaceae isolated from ecosys-tems with different degrees of anthropogenic impact (Perm Territory: Perm, Berezniki, Solikamsk, Osa) are analyzed. The phylogenetic diversity and wide distribution of the family Micrococcaceae representa-tives in various biotopes of the Verkhnekamskoe salt deposit mining area are shown. A variety of species of the Micrococcaceae family bacteria was revealed in the soil and rhizosphere of plants growing near salt dumps. Based on the analysis of the 16S rRNA gene, the studied strains of the family Micrococca-ceae were assigned to seven genera: Arthrobacter, Pseudoarthrobacter, Glutamicibacter, Micrococcus, Kocuria, Nesterenkonia, Rothia. The studied cultivated bacteria of the family Micrococcaceae, isolated from ecotopes with extreme environmental conditions, are promising for their further use for biotechno-logical purposes.

Bacterial strain 14-2AT, isolated from a long-term DDT-contaminated soil in China, was characterized by using a polyphasic approach to clarify its taxonomic position. Strain 14-2AT was found to be Gram-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming, non-motile, non-flagellated and rod-shaped. The new isolate was able to grow at 4–42 °C, pH 6.0–9.0 and with 0–5 % NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the isolate belongs to the family Sphingobacteriaceae . The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain 14-2AT showed the highest similarity with Olivibacter oleidegradans TBF2/20.2T (99.4 %), followed by Pseudosphingobacterium domesticum DC-186T (93.8 %), Olivibacter ginsengisoli Gsoil 060T (93.6 %), Olivibacter terrae Jip13T (93.1 %), Olivibacter soli Gsoil 034T (92.8 %) and Olivibacter sitiensis AW-6T (89.6 %). The DNA–DNA hybridization value between strains 14-2AT and O. oleidegradans TBF2/20.2T was 34.45±2.11 %. Strain 14-2AT contained phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine, aminophospholipid and phosphatidylinositol mannoside as the major polar lipids. The DNA G+C content was 41.2 mol%. MK-7 is the major isoprenoid quinone. Summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c), iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH are the major fatty acids. The phenotypic and chemotaxonomic data confirmed the affiliation of strain 14-2AT to the genus Olivibacter . On the basis of the phylogenetic and phenotypic characteristics, and chemotaxonomic data, strain 14-2AT is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Olivibacter , for which the name Olivibacter jilunii sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is 14-2AT ( = KCTC 23098T = CCTCC AB 2010105T).

The taxonomic position of strain MSSRFBL1T, isolated from chickpea rhizosphere soil from Kannivadi, India, was determined. Strain MSSRFBL1T formed bluish black colonies, stained Gram-negative and was motile, aerobic, capable of fixing dinitrogen, oxidase-negative and catalase-positive. Q-10 was the major respiratory quinone. Major fatty acids of strain MSSRFBL1T were C18 : 1ω7c and C19 : 0cycloω8c. Minor amounts of C18 : 0, C12 : 0, C14 : 0 3-OH, C18 : 0 3-OH, C16 : 0, C16 : 1ω6c/C16 : 1ω7c, C17 : 0 3-OH and C20 : 1ω7c were also present. Polar lipids included diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine and two unidentified glycolipids. Bacteriohopane derivatives (BHD1 and 2), diplopterol, diploptene, bishomohopanediol, adenosylhopane and 2β-methyl bacteriohopanetetrol were the major hopanoids of strain MSSRFBL1T. The genomic DNA G+C content was 71 mol%. EzTaxon-e-based blast analysis of the 16S rRNA gene indicated the highest similarity of strain MSSRFBL1T to Ensifer adhaerens LMG 20216T (97.3 %) and other members of the genus Ensifer (<96.9 %) in the family Rhizobiaceae of the class Alphaproteobacteria . However, phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA, recA, thrC and dnaK gene sequences showed distinct out-grouping from the recognized genera of the family Rhizobiaceae . Based on phenotypic, genotypic and chemotaxonomic characters, strain MSSRFBL1T represents a novel species in a new genus in the family Rhizobiaceae for which the name Ciceribacter lividus gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Ciceribacter lividus is MSSRFBL1T ( = DSM 25528T = KCTC 32403T).

A novel sulfate-reducing bacterium, designated strain Pf12BT, was isolated from sediment of meromictic Lake Harutori in Japan. Cells were vibroid (1.0 × 3.0–4.0 μm), motile and Gram-stain-negative. For growth, the optimum pH was 7.0–7.5 and the optimum temperature was 42–45 °C. Strain Pf12BT used sulfate, thiosulfate and sulfite as electron acceptors. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 55.4 mol%. Major cellular fatty acids were C16 : 0 and C18 : 0. The strain was desulfoviridin-positive. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene revealed that the novel strain belonged to the order Desulfovibrionales in the class Deltaproteobacteria. The closest relative was Desulfomicrobium baculatum DSM 4028T with which it shared 91  % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. On the basis of phylogenetic and phenotypic characterization, a novel species of a new genus belonging to the family Desulfomicrobiaceae is proposed, Desulfoplanes formicivorans gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain of Desulfoplanes formicivorans is Pf12BT ( = NBRC 110391T = DSM 28890T).

A Gram-stain-negative, ovoid or rod-shaped, non-flagellated, motile-by-gliding and aerobic bacteria, designated S10-8T, was isolated from marine sediment of the Yellow Sea. Colonies of strain S10-8T had a pink-red pigmentation and its cells were approximately 0.5–0.8 μm×1.0–2.5 μm in size. Growth occurred at 10–45 °C (optimally at 33–37 °C), in the presence of 0–12.0 % NaCl (optimally at 2.0–5.0 %, w/v) and at pH 5.0–8.5 (optimally at pH 7.0–7.5). Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene indicated that strain S10-8T is a member of the genus Pontibacter within the family Hymenobacteraceae , and the 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of strain S10-8T to its closest relative Pontibacter actiniarum KCTC 12367T was 96.9 %. Strain S10-8T contained MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone and summed feature 4 (iso-C17:1 I and/or anteiso-C17:1 B) and iso-C15:0 as the major fatty acids. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminophospholipid and an unidentified lipid. The size of the draft genome was 4 623 791 bp and the G+C content was 53.5 mol%. There were low DNA-DNA hybridization values (<48.3±5.2 %) and average nucleotide identity values (<86.5 %) between strain S10-8T and the most closely related recognized Pontibacter species. Therefore, we propose a novel species in the genus Pontibacter to accommodate the novel isolate: Pontibacter flavimaris sp. nov. (type strain S10-8T=KCTC 42769T=ACCC 19859T).

Three novel Gram-negative, non-fermenting aerobic bacilli were isolated from human clinical samples. They shared more than 99.8 % of the 16S rRNA gene nucleotide positions. The strains were related to Ochrobactrum intermedium with about 97.48 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. In 16S rRNA gene-, dnaK- and rpoB-based phylogenies, the strains were grouped in a lineage that was distinct from other Ochrobactrum species in the family Brucellaceae. Fatty acid composition, polar lipids, quinone system, DNA–DNA relatedness, genome organization, and physiological and biochemical data differentiated these isolates from recognized species of the genus Ochrobactrum. The three clinical strains therefore represent a novel species within the genus Ochrobactrum, for which the name Ochrobactrum pseudintermedium sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain is ADV31T (=CIP 109116T=DSM 17490T). The DNA G+C content of strain ADV31T was 54.5 mol%.

Strain EB21T was isolated from a brine sample from Aran-Bidgol salt lake, a saline playa in Iran. Strain EB21T was an orange–red-pigmented, motile rod and required at least 2 M NaCl but not MgCl2 for growth. Optimal growth was achieved at 3.5 M NaCl and 0.2 M MgCl2. The optimum pH and temperature for growth were pH 7.5 and 40 °C, while it was able to grow at pH 6.0–8.0 and 25–55 °C. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain EB21T is a member of the family Halobacteriaceae , showing low levels of similarity to other members of the family. The highest sequence similarities, 91.8, 91.7 and 91.5 %, were obtained with the 16S rRNA gene sequences of the type strains of Halobiforma lacisalsi , Haloterrigena thermotolerans and Halalkalicoccus tibetensis , respectively. Polar lipid analyses revealed that strain EB21T contains phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol phosphate methyl ester and phosphatidylglycerol sulfate. Three unidentified glycolipids and one minor phospholipid were also observed. The only quinone present was MK-8(II-H2). The G+C content of its DNA was 67.7 mol%. On the basis of the data obtained, the new isolate could not be classified in any recognized genus. Strain EB21T is thus considered to represent a novel species in a new genus within the family Halobacteriaceae , order Halobacteriales , for which the name Haloarchaeobius iranensis gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Haloarchaeobius iranensis is EB21T ( = IBRC-M 10013T  = KCTC 4048T).

Three strains of a hitherto unknown, Gram-negative, tiny, anaerobic coccus were collected from human clinical samples originating from skin and soft tissues. The three isolates displayed at least 99.9 % identity in their 16S rRNA gene sequences and more than 99.8 % identity in their dnaK gene sequences. The isolates were affiliated to the family Veillonellaceae, the coccobacillus Dialister micraerophilus being the most closely related species, but there was no more than 91.1 % identity in the 16S rRNA gene sequence between this species and the three isolates. Phylogeny based on the 16S rRNA gene confirmed that the three strains represent a novel and robust lineage within the current family Veillonellaceae. A similar genomic structure was demonstrated for the three isolates by PFGE-based analysis. Morphology and metabolic end products, as well as genotypic and phylogenetic data supported the proposal of the novel genus Negativicoccus gen. nov., with the novel species Negativicoccus succinicivorans sp. nov. [type strain ADV 07/08/06-B-1388T (=AIP 149.07T=CIP 109806T=DSM 21255T=CCUG 56017T) as type species]. Phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences of members of the phylum Firmicutes and other phyla indicated that the family Veillonellaceae forms a robust lineage clearly separated from those of the classes ‘Bacilli’, ‘Clostridia’, Thermolithobacteria and ‘Erysipelotrichi’ in the phylum Firmicutes. Therefore, we propose that this family is a class-level taxon in the phylum Firmicutes, for which the name Negativicutes classis nov. is proposed, based on the Gram-negative type of cell wall of its members, with the type order Selenomonadales ord. nov. In this order, a novel family, Acidaminococcaceae fam. nov., is proposed and description of the family Veillonellaceae is emended.

A lemon-shaped marine bacterium, strain CL-SP20T, isolated from hypersaline water from a solar saltern in Korea, was characterized in terms of its physiological and biochemical features, its fatty acid profile and its phylogenetic position based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed a clear affiliation with the Roseobacter lineage (91.0–96.3 % similarity) of the family Rhodobacteraceae. However, strain CL-SP20T did not form a robust clade with any species of the Roseobacter clade, forming a distinct subline. Strain CL-SP20T is non-motile and forms beige colonies on marine agar. The strain is able to grow with sea salts at concentrations in the range 1–10 %, with optimal growth between 5 and 6 %. It grows at temperatures in the range 15–40 °C and at pH 6–10. The strain cannot oxidize thiosulfate. The fatty acids are dominated by 18 : 1ω7c (54.3 %) and 19 : 0 cyclo ω8c (20.4 %). The DNA G+C content is 67.3 mol%. According to the physiological data, fatty acid composition and phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence, strain CL-SP20T represents a novel species in a novel genus of the family Rhodobacteraceae, for which the name Citreimonas salinaria gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Citreimonas salinaria is CL-SP20T (=KCCM 42116T=JCM 13036T).

A Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium, designated CWB-1T, was isolated from a haloalkaline lake sediment sample collected from the bottom of Chaiwopu Lake, Urumchi, Xinjiang Province, PR China. Strain CWB-1T grew at 4–40 °C (optimum, 30–35 °C), pH 6.5–9.0 (optimum, pH 6.5–7.0) and with 0.5–5.5 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2.5–3.0 %). Phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence and the whole genome sequence both revealed that strain CWB-1T belonged to the family Flavobacteriaceae . The strain had the highest similarity of the 16S rRNA gene sequence to Psychroserpens jangbogonensis PAMC 27130T (92.8 %). The genome of strain CWB-1T was 3 548 011 bp long with 36.3 % DNA G+C content. The predominant fatty acids (>10 %) in the CWB-1T cells were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and summed feature 1 (iso-C15 : 1 H/C13 : 0 3-OH). The major respiratory quinone was menaquinone-6 and the major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid and two unidentified lipids. Based on the phylogenetic analyses, as well as the phenotypic characteristics, a novel genus and species of the family Flavobacteriaceae , Paucihalobacter ruber gen. nov., sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain is CWB-1T (=KCTC 72450T=CGMCC 1.17149T).

A Gram-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium, DS-139T, was isolated from a soil sample collected from Dokdo, Korea, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic analysis. Strain DS-139T grew optimally at 25 °C and pH 6.5–7.5 in the presence of 0–0.5 % (w/v) NaCl. It contained MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C15 : 0, C16 : 1 ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH as the major fatty acids. The DNA G+C content was 39.4 mol%. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain DS-39T belongs to the genus Pedobacter in the family Sphingobacteriaceae. The similarity values between the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain DS-139T and those of the type strains of recognized Pedobacter species, except Pedobacter saltans, were in the range 93.9–96.7 %. The differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic distinctiveness, were sufficient to assign strain DS-139T to a species that is separate from recognized Pedobacter species. On the basis of the phenotypic and phylogenetic data, therefore, strain DS-139T represents a novel species of the genus Pedobacter, for which the name Pedobacter insulae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is DS-139T (=KCTC 12820T =DSM 18684T).
