Abstract

The phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of a historical collection of strains identified as were examined. Sequence analysis of a 765 bp gene fragment revealed that eight of these strains belonged to the recently described and , and that one strain belonged to The analysis also suggested the presence of four novel species of the genus among the remaining strains. The latter was confirmed by multilocus sequence analysis of concatenated and gene fragments and extensive genotypic and phenotypic characterization. We propose to name these novel species as sp. nov., nom. rev. (type strain LMG 3411=CCUG 62454), sp. nov., nom. rev. (type strain LMG 3431=CCUG 61959) , sp. nov. (type strain LMG 3441=CCUG 62449) and sp. nov. (type strain LMG 3458=CCUG 62433).
