Identification of this strain was carried out on the basis of polyphasic taxonomy. The isolate was Gram-staining-positive, rod-shaped, non-pigmented and motile. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that the isolate was closely related to Paenibacillus chondroitinus DSM 5051T with 96.1 % similarity. The predominant fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0 (50.25 %), iso-C16 : 0 (18.54 %) and iso-C15 : 0 (10.00 %). The major isoprenoid quinone was MK-7. The G+C content of genomic DNA was 50 mol%. According to physiological data and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the isolate was discriminated from related members of the genus Paenibacillus. Therefore, strain CJ25T represents a novel species of the genus Paenibacillus, for which the name Paenibacillus aestuarii sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CJ25T (=KACC 13125T =JCM 15521T)., language=, type=
