Strain LYX05T was aerobic and heterotrophic. The strain grew optimally at 37 °C and pH 7.5 and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. Colonies were 1–2 mm in diameter, circular, reddish orange and shiny with entire edges on marine agar medium. Cells were rods (0.3–0.5 µm wide and 0.8–1.6 µm long). The dominant fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0 (40.82 %) and C16 : 0 (10.45 %). The DNA G+C content was 42.5 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain LYX05T was phylogenetically related to the members of the genus Algoriphagus and the closest relative was Algoriphagus hitonicola 7-UAHT (95.8 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity). On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data, strain LYX05T was considered to represent a novel species of the genus Algoriphagus, for which the name Algoriphagus faecimaris sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LYX05T ( = JCM 16561T  = DSM 23095T  = LMG 25474T).", }
