Abstract A novel Gram- negative, cream-colored, rod-shaped, aerobic, non-motile bacterium, designated MSA67T, was isolated from a subterranean sediment sample of the Mohe Basin in Northeast China. Strain MSA67T was detected to grow at 4–40°C (optimum, 28–30°C), pH 5.0–10.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and in 0.0–8.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2.0–3.0 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain MSA67T was a member of the genus Devosia, with the highest similarity with D. riboflavina IFO13584T (98.0 %) and D. chinhatensis IPL18T (97.0 %). The major cellular fatty acids are C16:0, C18:1ω7c 11-methyl and C18:1ω6c and/or C18:1ω7c. The major polar lipids are diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, glycolipids and three unidentified phospholipids. The major respiratory quinone is ubiquinone 10 (Q-10). The genomic size of strain MSA67T is 4.1 MB and DNA G + C content is 63.6 %. Based on genotypic, phenotypic and phylogenetic results, strain MSA67T is concluded to represent a novel species of the genus Devosia, for which the name Devosia sediminis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MSA67T (= CGMCC 1.18467T = KCTC 82192T).

Taxonomic studies were performed on an astaxanthin-dideoxyglycoside-producing strain, designated PB304T, isolated from soil near a pond in Daejeon city, South Korea. Cells of strain PB304T were Gram-staining-negative, strictly aerobic, orange-coloured and motile, and occurred as single or paired short chains. PB304T did not contain bacteriochlorophyll a. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain PB304T was closely related to ‘Sphingomonas humi’ KCTC 12341 (98.7 %), Sphingomonas kaistensis KCTC 12344T (97.9 %), Sphingomonas astaxanthinifaciens DSM 22298T (97.6 %) and Sphingomonas ginsengisoli KCTC 12630T (97.5 %). Analysis of pufLM gene sequences revealed strain PB304T to be closely related to ‘S. humi’ KCTC 12341 (88.1 %). The major cellular fatty acids were C16 : 0, summed feature 4 (comprising iso-C15 : 0 2-OH and/or C16 : 1ω7c), and summed feature 7 (comprising C18 : 1ω7c/ω9t/ω12t). Ubiquinone 10 (Q-10) was the sole quinone identified, and the major pigment was astaxanthin dideoxyglycoside. The major polar lipids were sphingoglycolipid, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. The polyamine was spermidine. The DNA–DNA relatedness values of strain PB304T with respect to its closest phylogenetic neighbours were 57.1 % for ‘S. humi’ KCTC 12341, 51.2 % for Sphingomonas kaistensis KCTC 12334T, 50.6 % for Sphingomonas astaxanthinifaciens DSM 22298T and 50.2 % for Sphingomonas ginsengisoli KCTC 12630T. The DNA G+C content of strain PB304T was 66.6 mol%. On the basis of the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data, strain PB304T is concluded to represent a novel species of the genus Sphingomonas, for which the name Sphingomonas lacus is proposed.

A novel bacterial strain, designated M2T2B15T, was isolated from fermented bovine products and was characterized by using a polyphasic approach. Colonies were reddish pink and circular with entire margins. Cells were strictly aerobic, Gram-reaction-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive rods that lacked flagella and were motile by gliding. Flexirubin-type pigments were absent. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain M2T2B15T was related most closely to Larkinella insperata LMG 22510T (94.4 % similarity) but shared <87 % similarity with other members of the phylum Bacteroidetes. The major cellular fatty acids were C16 : 1 ω5c, iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH. The polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, two unidentified aminophospholipids and two unidentified polar lipids. Menaquinone 7 (MK-7) was the major respiratory quinone. The G+C content of the DNA of strain M2T2B15T was 52 mol%. The phenotypic, genotypic and phylogenetic data presented clearly indicate that strain M2T2B15T represents a novel species of the genus Larkinella, for which the name Larkinella bovis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is M2T2B15T (=KACC 14040T =NBRC 106324T). Emended descriptions of the genus Larkinella and of Larkinella insperata Vancanneyt et al. 2006 are also proposed.

We isolated a strain coded Esc2AmT during a study focused on the microbial diversity of adult specimens of the bark beetle Hylesinus fraxini. Its 16S rRNA gene sequence had 99.4 % similarity with respect to its closest relative, Pseudomonas rhizosphaerae IH5T. The analysis of partial sequences of the housekeeping genes rpoB, rpoD and gyrB confirmed that strain Esc2AmT formed a cluster with P. rhizosphaerae IH5T clearly separated from the remaining species of the genus Pseudomonas. Strain Esc2AmT had polar flagella and could grow at temperatures from 4 °C to 30 °C. The respiratory quinone was Q9 and the main fatty acids were C16 : 0, C18 : 1ω7c and/or C18 : 1ω6c in summed feature 8 and C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c in summed feature 3. DNA–DNA hybridization results showed 51 % relatedness with respect to P. rhizosphaerae IH5T. Oxidase, catalase and urease-positive, the arginine dihydrolase system was present but nitrate reduction and β-galactosidase production were negative. Aesculin hydrolysis was positive. Based on the results from the genotypic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses, we propose the classification of strain Esc2AmT as representing a novel species of the genus Pseudomonas, for which we propose the name Pseudomonas coleopterorum sp. nov. The type strain is Esc2AmT ( = LMG 28558T = CECT 8695T).
