Phylogenetic analysis on the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence comparison revealed that the isolates represented a distinct cluster within the clade of the genus Nocardioides and were most closely related to Nocardioides pyridinolyticus OS4T, Nocardioides aquiterrae GW-9T, Nocardioides sediminis MSL-01T and N. hankookensis DS-30T. The peptidoglycan based on ll-2,6-diaminopimelic acid, the major menaquinone MK-8(H4), the cellular fatty acid profile with iso-C16 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0 as predominating components and the DNA G+C content of 71.4 mol% (strain 1RaM5-12T) were consistent with the affiliation of the isolates to the genus Nocardioides. Because of differences in physiological characteristics, matrix-assisted laser-desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectra of protein extracts, PvuII RiboPrinter patterns and 96.1 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain 1RaM5-12T and its closest phylogenetic neighbour, N. pyridinolyticus OS4T, a novel species, Nocardioides hungaricus sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain is 1RaM5-12T (=DSM 21673T =NCAIM 02330T). %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijs.0.022939-0
