Abstract

A novel actinobacterium, designated YIM 101593, was isolated from the faeces of a primate () living in Yunnan Wild Animal Park in Yunnan province, south-west China. The isolate was Gram-stain-positive, facultatively anaerobic, coccus-shaped, oxidase-negative and motile. The cell wall contained -diaminopimelic acid as its diagnostic diamino acid, and mannose, ribose, glucose, galactose and arabinose were detected as the main whole-cell sugars. The predominant menaquinone was MK-8(H). The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, two glycolipids, three unidentified phospholipids and two unidentified lipids. The major fatty acids were Cω8, C and summed feature 4 (anteiso-C B and/or iso-C I). The DNA G+C content was 69.8 mol%. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain YIM 101593 and was 97.9 %, and the two strains formed a distinct lineage stably on the basis of phylogenetic analysis. In addition, DNA–DNA relatedness between the two strains was 49.0±5.1 %. On the basis of chemotaxonomical and physiological characteristics and the phylogenetic analysis, strain YIM 101593 should be considered to represent a novel species of the genus , for which we propose the name p. nov., with the type strain YIM 101593 (=DSM 27611=CCTCC AB 2013229).
