Growth of strain J22T was observed in R2A medium at temperatures between 10 and 42 °C (optimum 30 °C), between pH 6.5 and 10.5 (optimum pH 7.5) and at a NaCl concentration between 0 and 4 % (w/v) (optimum 0–1 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain J22T belonged to the genus Brevundimonas, with high sequence similarities of >97 % to the sequence of the type strains Brevundimonas alba CB88T, Brevundimonas lenta DS-18T, Brevundimonas variabilis CB17T, Mycoplana bullata TK0051T, Brevundimonas kwangchunensis KSL-102T, Brevundimonas intermedia CB63T, Brevundimonas subvibrioides CB81T and Brevundimonas bacteroides CB7T. Strain J22T exhibited DNA–DNA relatedness values of less than 22.2 % with the phylogenetically related species of the genus Brevundimonas. The DNA G+C content of strain J22T was 66.3 mol%. The predominant cellular fatty acids were C18 : 1 ω7c, C16 : 0 and C16 : 1 ω9c; C12 : 0 3-OH was present, which chemotaxonomically characterizes the members of the genus Brevundimonas. Phylogenetic, genomic and biochemical characteristics served to differentiate this isolate from recognized members of the genus Brevundimonas. Strain J22T (=KCTC 22177T=JCM 15911T) should be classified as a novel species in the genus Brevundimonas, for which the name Brevundimonas basaltis sp. nov. is proposed. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijs.0.013557-0
