Abstract

Members of the genera and have largely been described on the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses, biochemical tests and limited chemotaxonomic data. Examination of the polar lipid compositions of members of these two genera indicated that although the patterns were similar with regards the phospholipid and amino lipid compositions, there were clear differences in the presence or absence of the glycolipid sulfoquinovosyldiacylglycerol (SQDG). This glycolipid was absent in members of the species and but was present in , and . These results are also consistent with the 16S rRNA sequence-based grouping. We therefore propose that the genus be divided further to reflect this additional information. Thus, it is recommended that , and are transferred to a new genus, gen. nov., as gen. nov., comb. nov. (type strain S21B  = CECT 7138  = CIP 109525  = KCTC 22106  = LMG 23375  = DSM 21988), comb. nov. (type strain 5715S-12  = KACC 11607  = DSM 18598  = CIP 109815) and comb. nov. (type strain CW5  = KCTC 12893  = JCM 14755  = DSM 21987). The type species of the new genus is . Additionally, emended descriptions of the genera and are provided.
