Abstract Strain WN019T, an aerobic, motile, and pleomorphic rods bacterium, was isolated from the natural saline-alkali wetland soil of Binhai new district, Tianjin, China. Cells of strain WN019T were 0.5-0.8 µm in width and 2.0-2.5 µm in length, and the growth occurred optimally at 33-37 ℃, pH 7.5-8.0, and in the presence of 15.0-20.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the isolate belonged to the genus Halorubrum and exhibited high sequence similarity of 97.8 % to Halorubrum saccharovorum JCM 8865T. The major respiratory quinone of strain WN019T were MK-8 and MK-8 (H2), and the major polar lipids were Glycolipid (GL), Phospholipid (PL), Phosphatidylglycerol-Sulfate (PGS), Phosphatidylglycerol (PG) and Phosphatidylglycerol-Phosphate-Methyl Ester (Me-PGP). The DNA G+C content of the strain was 67.3 mol%. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) based on whole genome sequences of strain WN019T and Halorubrum saccharovorum JCM 8865T was 87.5 %, and the digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) value between them was determined to be 35.4 %. Phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, phylogenetic, and genomic analyses suggested that strain WN019T represent a novel species of the genus Halorubrum, for which the name Halorubrum salipaludis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is WN019T (= KCTC 4269T = ACCC 19977T).

Two strains of Gram-reaction-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming, non-motile, aerobic bacteria, designated LW30T and LW29, were isolated from the rhizosphere of a wetland reed in Dongtan, Chongming Island, China. The strains formed pale-yellow colonies on R2A plates. Growth occurred at 4–37 °C (optimum 30 °C), at pH 6–9 (optimum pH 7–8) and in the presence of 0–3 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 0–1 %). Oxidase and catalase activities and flexirubin-type pigments were absent. MK-6 was the major respiratory quinone. The major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G and iso-C17 : 1 ω9c. Strains LW30T and LW29 could be differentiated from related species by several phenotypic characteristics. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences placed strains LW30T and LW29 in the genus Flavobacterium with high sequence similarity to Flavobacterium cheniae NJ-26T (94.0 %) and Flavobacterium indicium GPTSA 100-9T (93.9 %). Together with F. indicium GPTSA 100-9T, strains LW30T and LW29 formed a distinct group in the phylogenetic tree. The DNA G+C content was 30 mol%. On the basis of the phylogenetic and phenotypic evidence, strains LW30T and LW29 represent a novel species of the genus Flavobacterium, for which the name Flavobacterium dongtanense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LW30T (=KCTC 22671T =CCTCC AB 209201T).

A bacterial strain, designated Npb-02T, was isolated from a freshwater river in Taiwan and characterized in a taxonomic study using a polyphasic approach. Cells of strain Npb-02T were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, poly-β-hydroxybutyrate-accumulating, rod-shaped and non-motile. Growth occurred at 15–40 °C (optimum 25–30 °C), at pH 7.0–8.0 (optimum pH 7.0) and with 0–1 % NaCl (optimum 0.5 %). Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain Npb-02T belonged to the genus Vogesella and was most closely related to Vogesella perlucida DS-28T with sequence similarity of 98.3 %. Strain Npb-02T contained summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c) and C16 : 0 as the major fatty acids. The major respiratory quinone was Q-8.The polar lipid profile consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, an uncharacterized aminophospholipid and an uncharacterized phospholipid. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain Npb-02T was 64.1 mol%. The DNA–DNA hybridization values for strain Npb-02T with Vogesella perlucida DS-28T, Vogesella mureinivorans 389T and Vogesella lacus GR13T were less than 25 %. On the basis of phylogenetic inference and phenotypic data, strain Npb-02T represents a novel species of the genus Vogesella, for which the name Vogesella amnigena sp. nov. is proposed.

Three novel aerobic, elliptic bacteria, designated DQHS4T, DQHS8 and DQHS15, were isolated from sediment of a seashore pond for sea cucumber culture in Jimo, Qingdao, on the east coast of China. Cells were Gram-, oxidase- and catalase-negative. All three strains grew at 15–42 °C, pH 5–9 and NaCl concentrations between 0.5 and 10 %. DNA–DNA hybridization experiments revealed high (>85 %) relatedness among the three novel isolates and suggested that the strains constitute a single species. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that these bacteria had less than 90 % similarity to all described species of the phylum Bacteroidetes; the closest relative of the three isolates was Prolixibacter bellariivorans F2T, sharing only 89.6 % sequence similarity. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C17 : 0 3-OH (19.8–20.0 %), iso-C15 : 0 (16.9–17.3 %), anteiso-C17 : 1 B and/or iso-C17 : 1 I (7.4–8.7 %), C17 : 0 2-OH (8.4 %), anteiso-C15 : 0 (8.2–8.6 %) and C17 : 1ω6c (5.6–6.0 %). The major respiratory quinone was menaquinone-7 (MK-7) and the DNA G+C content was 41.8–43.5 mol%. Based on the distinct phylogenetic position and the combination of genotypic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, these three strains were considered to represent a novel species of a new genus in the phylum Bacteroidetes, for which the name Sunxiuqinia elliptica gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Sunxiuqinia elliptica is DQHS4T ( = CGMCC 1.9156T  = NCCB 100301T  = LMG 25367T).
