The isolate was catalase- and oxidase-positive and cells were motile by means of polar flagella. The DNA G+C content was 44.9 mol%. The major fatty acids were C16 : 1 ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH, C16 : 0, C18 : 1 ω7c, C14 : 0 and C12 : 0. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain CN83T belonged to the genus Vibrio and had the highest sequence similarity to Vibrio agarivorans (98.4 %) and Vibrio campbellii (97.8 %). Phylogenetic analysis revealed that strain CN83T formed a monophyletic clade adjacent to the type strain of V. agarivorans. The DNA–DNA hybridization values of strain CN83T with V. agarivorans DSM 13756T and V. campbellii DSM 19270T were 44.6 and 25.5 %, respectively. On the basis of the phenotypic and genotypic data, strain CN83T represents a novel species of the genus Vibrio, for which the name Vibrio hangzhouensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CN83T (=CGMCC 1.7062T=JCM 15146T). %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijs.0.008698-0
