The strain was affiliated with the alphaproteobacterial genus Brevundimonas, with Brevundimonas diminuta LMG 2089T (98.3 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity) and Brevundimonas terrae KSL-145T (97.5 %) as its closest relatives. This affiliation was supported by chemotaxonomic data: the G+C content was 66.3 mol %, the major polar lipids were phosphatidyl diacylglycerol, sulfoquinovosyl diacylglycerol and phosphatidyl glucopyranosyl diacylglycerol and the major fatty acids were summed feature 7 (one or more of C18 : 1 ω7c, C18 : 1 ω9t and C18 : 1 ω12t) and C16 : 0. Strain LMG 2337T displayed an unusually broad substrate spectrum. The results from DNA–DNA hybridization and physiological and biochemical tests allowed the genotypic and phenotypic differentiation of strain LMG 2337T from all of the type strains of hitherto-described Brevundimonas species. The strain therefore represents a novel species, for which the name Brevundimonas vancanneytii sp. nov. is proposed, with type strain LMG 2337T (=CCUG 1797T =ATCC 14736T). %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijs.0.015651-0
