List of new names and new combinations previously effectively, but not validly, published
The purpose of this announcement is to effect the valid publication of the following effectively published new names and new combinations under the procedure described in the Bacteriological Code (1990 Revision). Authors and other individuals wishing to have new names and/or combinations included in future lists should send three copies of the pertinent reprint or photocopies thereof, or an electronic copy of the published paper, to the IJSEM Editorial Office for confirmation that all of the other requirements for valid publication have been met. It is also a requirement of IJSEM and the ICSP that authors of new species, new subspecies and new combinations provide evidence that types are deposited in two recognized culture collections in two different countries. It should be noted that the date of valid publication of these new names and combinations is the date of publication of this list, not the date of the original publication of the names and combinations. The authors of the new names and combinations are as given below, and these authors’ names will be included in the author index of the present issue. Inclusion of a name on these lists validates the publication of the name and thereby makes it available in bacteriological nomenclature. The inclusion of a name on this list is not to be construed as taxonomic acceptance of the taxon to which the name is applied. Indeed, some of these names may, in time, be shown to be synonyms, or the organisms may be transferred to another genus, thus necessitating the creation of a new combination.

Notification that new names and new combinations have appeared in volume 60, part 8, of the IJSEM
This listing of names published in a previous issue of the IJSEM is provided as a service to bacteriology to assist in the recognition of new names and new combinations. This procedure was proposed by the Judicial Commission [Minute 11(ii), Int J Syst Bacteriol 41 (1991), p. 185]. The names given herein are listed according to the Rules of priority (i.e. page number and order of valid publication of names in the original articles). Taxonomic opinions included in this List (i.e. the creation of synonyms or the emendation of circumscriptions) cannot be considered as validly published nor, in any other way, approved by the International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes and its Judicial Commission.

Pseudonocardia tropica sp. nov., an endophytic actinomycete isolated from the stem of Maytenus austroyunnanensis
A novel strain, designated YIM 61452T, was isolated from the stem of Maytenus austroyunnanensis collected from the tropical rainforest of Xishuangbanna, Yunnan Province, south-west China. The strain was characterized taxonomically by using a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain YIM 61452T belonged to the genus Pseudonocardia and was most closely related to Pseudonocardia alni IMSNU 20049T (99.5 %), Pseudonocardia antarctica DVS 5a1T (99.5 %) and Pseudonocardia carboxydivorans Y8T (99.4 %). The chemotaxonomic properties of strain YIM 61452T, for example MK-8(H4) as the predominant quinone system and iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C16 : 1 H as the major fatty acids, were also consistent with its classification within the genus Pseudonocardia. Strain YIM 61452T could be differentiated from closely related species of the genus Pseudonocardia by phenotypic and genotypic analysis. DNA–DNA hybridization experiments between strain YIM 61452T and closely related reference strains further confirmed that strain YIM 61452T represented a novel taxon of the genus Pseudonocardia. Therefore, strain YIM 61452T represents a novel species, for which the name Pseudonocardia tropica sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM 61452T (=DSM 45199T=CCTCC AA 208018T).

Marisediminicola antarctica gen. nov., sp. nov., an actinobacterium isolated from the Antarctic
More LessStrain ZS314T was isolated from a sandy intertidal sediment sample collected from the coastal area off the Chinese Antarctic Zhongshan Station, east Antarctica (6 ° 22′ 13″ S 7 ° 21′ 41″ E). The cells were Gram-positive, motile, short rods. The temperature range for growth was 0–26 °C and the pH for growth ranged from 5 to 10, with optimum growth occurring within the temperature range 18–23 °C and pH range 6.0–8.0. Growth occurred in the presence of 0–6 % (w/v) NaCl, with optimum growth occurring in the presence of 2–4 % (w/v) NaCl. Strain ZS314T had MK-10 as the major menaquinone and anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0 as major fatty acids. The cell-wall peptidoglycan type was B2β with ornithine as the diagnostic diamino acid. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol. The genomic DNA G+C content was approximately 67 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity showed that strain ZS314T represents a new lineage in the family Microbacteriaceae. On the basis of the phylogenetic analyses and phenotypic characteristics, a new genus, namely Marisediminicola gen. nov., is proposed, harbouring the novel species Marisediminicola antarctica sp. nov. with the type strain ZS314T (=DSM 22350T =CCTCC AB 209077T).

Corynebacterium canis sp. nov., isolated from a wound infection caused by a dog bite
More LessA non-lipophilic, coryneform bacterium isolated from a patient's wound caused by a dog bite was characterized by phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and molecular genetic methods. Chemotaxonomic features suggested assignment of the unknown bacterium to the genus Corynebacterium. The isolate exhibited the following unusual features, which made it possible to phenotypically differentiate it from all other medically relevant corynebacteria: the Gram stain showed some very filamentous rods (>15 μm in length); some cells exhibited branching; colonies were domed and adherent to agar; the micro-organism was positive for pyrazinamidase, β-glucosidase, α-glucosidase and trypsin but negative for β-galactosidase. 16S rRNA gene sequencing and partial rpoB gene sequencing showed that the closest phylogenetic relative, Corynebacterium freiburgense, exhibited more than 1.9 % and 17.9 % divergence with the unknown bacterium, respectively. Based on both phenotypic and molecular genetic data, it is proposed that the isolate should be classified as a novel species, Corynebacterium canis sp. nov., with the type strain 1170T (=CCUG 58627T =DSM 45402T).

Williamsia faeni sp. nov., an actinomycete isolated from a hay meadow
More LessThe taxonomic status of an actinomycete isolated from soil collected from a hay meadow was determined using a polyphasic approach. The strain, designated N1350T, had morphological and chemotaxonomic properties consistent with its classification in the genus Williamsia and formed a distinct phyletic line within the clade comprising the type strains of species of the genus Williamsia in the 16S rRNA gene tree. Strain N1350T shared highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with Williamsia marianensis MT8T (98.1 %) and Williamsia muralis MA140-96T (98.3 %). However, strain N1350T was readily distinguished from the type strains of Williamsia species using a combination of phenotypic properties. On the basis of these data, strain N1350T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Williamsia. The name proposed for this taxon is Williamsia faeni sp. nov., with the type strain N1350T (=DSM 45372T =NCIMB 14575T =NRRL B-24794T).

Amycolatopsis helveola sp. nov. and Amycolatopsis pigmentata sp. nov., isolated from soil
More LessThree short spore chain-forming actinomycete strains were isolated from soil samples collected from subtropical islands in Japan. The cell-wall peptidoglycan of these strains contained meso-diaminopimelic acid (meso-A2pm), glutamic acid and alanine. The major isoprenoid quinone was MK-9(H4), iso-C16 : 0 and 2-OH iso-C16 : 0 were the major cellular fatty acids and phosphatidylethanolamine was a component of the polar lipids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 67–69 mol%. Phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the novel strains consistently formed a monophyletic cluster with Amycolatopsis taiwanensis. On the basis this polyphasic taxonomical study, it is proposed that the two new isolates represent two novel species: Amycolatopsis helveola (type strain TT00-43T=NBRC 103394T=KCTC 19329T) and Amycolatopsis pigmentata (type strain TT99-32T=NBRC 103392T=KCTC 19330T).

Microbacterium lindanitolerans sp. nov., isolated from hexachlorocyclohexane-contaminated soil
More LessA Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, rod-shaped, yellow actinobacterium, designated MNA2T, was isolated from a hexachlorocyclohexane-contaminated soil in North India. Strain MNA2T showed 95 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with Microbacterium halotolerans YIM 70130T. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain MNA2T belonged to a clade represented by the genus Microbacterium of the family Microbacteriaceae. Strain MNA2T contained anteiso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C17 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0 as the predominant fatty acids and diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and two unknown polar lipids. The menaquinones were MK-12, MK-11, MK-13 and MK-10, in an approximate molar ratio of 45 : 40 : 13 : 3, respectively. The DNA G+C content was 65.3 mol%. The peptidoglycan was of the B type of cross-linkage with ornithine as the diagnostic diamino acid. The results of the phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analysis indicate that strain MNA2T belongs to a previously unrecognized species of the genus Microbacterium, for which the name Microbacterium lindanitolerans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MNA2T (=DSM 22422T =CCM 7585T).

Slackia piriformis sp. nov. and Collinsella tanakaei sp. nov., new members of the family Coriobacteriaceae, isolated from human faeces
More LessThree Gram-positive, strictly anaerobic, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped organisms (strains YIT 12062T, YIT 12063T and YIT 12064) were isolated from human faeces. Strain YIT 12062T was asaccharolytic and possessed a DNA G+C content of 58.3 mol%. Cells of strain YIT 12062T were negative for catalase, oxidase, urease, hydrolysis of aesculin and gelatin, nitrate reduction and indole production. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain YIT 12062T was assigned to the genus Slackia (91.7–96.0 % sequence similarities to type strains of Slackia species). Biochemical data showed that the isolate was phenotypically distinct from all recognized species of the genus Slackia. Strain YIT 12062T therefore represents a novel species in the genus Slackia, for which the name Slackia piriformis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIT 12062T (=DSM 22477T=JCM 16070T). Following 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strains YIT 12063T and YIT 12064, which were isolated from different subjects, were shown to be most closely related to species of the genus Collinsella (93.8–95.1 % similarities to type strains). Although their phenotypic characteristics were very similar and they shared >99 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity and >97±1.8 % DNA–DNA relatedness, the two isolates could be discriminated by RAPD fingerprints. The DNA G+C contents of strains YIT 12063T and YIT 12064 were 60.8 and 61.0 mol%, respectively. They were saccharolytic in API test systems, positive for aesculin hydrolysis and negative for catalase, oxidase, urease, indole production, nitrate reduction and gelatin hydrolysis. The major end products of glucose fermentation of these strains were lactate, acetate and formate. Biochemical data supported the affiliation of strains YIT 12063T and YIT 12064 to the genus Collinsella and showed that they were phenotypically distinct from all recognized species of the genus Collinsella. Strains YIT 12063T and YIT 12064 therefore represent a novel species of the genus Collinsella, for which the name Collinsella tanakaei sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIT 12063T (=DSM 22478T=JCM 16071T).

Actinomadura scrupuli sp. nov., isolated from rock
More LessA novel actinomycete, designated strain R-Ac121T, was isolated from a small stone collected from an agricultural field in Jeju, Republic of Korea. The organism formed abundant vegetative mycelium that was branched and twisted. The reverse colour of colonies was brownish-yellow. Non-motile, wrinkled arthrospores were produced directly on the substrate mycelium. Aerial mycelium and sporangia were not observed. A neighbour-joining tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the isolate formed a distinct clade within the radiation of the family Thermomonosporaceae. The highest 16S rRNA gene sequence identity was found with the type strain of Spirillospora rubra (97.3 % sequence similarity) followed by those of Actinoallomurus purpureus (97.0 %), Actinomadura alba (96.5 %), Actinomadura fibrosa (96.5 %) and Actinomadura echinospora (96.4 %). The cell wall contained meso-diaminopimelic acid. The whole-cell sugars were rhamnose, glucose, ribose, xylose and arabinose. The polar lipids included diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol. The major menaquinone was MK-9(H6) and the predominant fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, C16 : 0, C17 : 1 ω8c and 10-methyl C17 : 0. The DNA G+C content was 71.8 mol%. The combination of morphological, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data clearly supports the separation of the organism from recognized species of the genus Actinomadura and related genera. On the basis of the data presented here, strain R-Ac121T represents a novel species of the genus Actinomadura, for which the name Actinomadura scrupuli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is strain R-Ac121T (=KCTC 19488T =DSM 45225T).

More LessAn actinomycete strain, K07-0523T, was isolated from the roots of an orchid collected in Okinawa prefecture, Japan. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that the new strain belonged to the family Micromonosporaceae and the similarity values between strain K07-0523T and the type species of 24 genera in the family Micromonosporaceae were 93.3–97.7 %. Strain K07-0523T contained d-glutamic acid, glycine, d-alanine, meso-diaminopimelic acid, hydroxydiaminopimelic acid and l-lysine in the cell wall. The major menaquinones were MK-9(H6), MK-10(H4) and MK-10(H6). Galactose, glucose, mannose, ribose and xylose were present in the whole-cell sugars. The acyl type of the peptidoglycan was glycolyl. Major fatty acids were anteiso-C17 : 0, iso-C17 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0. Phosphatidylethanolamine was detected as the major phospholipid and corresponded to phospholipid type II. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 73 mol%. On the basis of phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic data, the new strain represents a member of a new genus and novel species, namely Phytohabitans suffuscus gen. nov., sp. nov., in the family Micromonosporaceae. The type strain of the type species is K07-0523T (=DSM 45306T=NBRC 105367T).

Microbacterium radiodurans sp. nov., a UV radiation-resistant bacterium isolated from soil
Strain GIMN 1.002T, a UV radiation-tolerant bacterium, was isolated from the upper sand layers of the Gobi desert, Xinjiang, China and characterized in order to determine its taxonomic position. Cells were Gram-reaction-positive, heterotrophic, strictly aerobic, short rods. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain GIMN 1.002T belonged to the genus Microbacterium and was closely related to Microbacterium arborescens DSM 20754T (98.8 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity) and Microbacterium imperiale DSM 20530T (98.7 %). However, strain GIMN 1.002T had low DNA–DNA relatedness with M. arborescens DSM 20754T (17.1 %) and M. imperiale DSM 20530T (12.89 %). Strain GIMN 1.002T possessed chemotaxonomic markers that were consistent with its classification in the genus Microbacterium, i.e. MK-11, MK-12 and MK-10 as major menaquinones and anteiso-C15 : 0 (38.67 %), iso-C16 : 0 (18.16 %) and iso-C15 : 0 (17.46 %) as predominant cellular fatty acids. The DNA G+C content was 67.74 mol%. The cell-wall sugar was rhamnose. On the basis of the data from this study, strain GIMN 1.002T represents a novel species of the genus Microbacterium, for which the name Microbacterium radiodurans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is GIMN 1.002T (=CCTCC M208212T =NRRL B-24799T).

Halarchaeum acidiphilum gen. nov., sp. nov., a moderately acidophilic haloarchaeon isolated from commercial solar salt
More LessA novel halophilic archaeon, strain MH1-52-1T, was isolated from solar salt imported from Australia. Cells were pleomorphic, non-motile and Gram-negative. Strain MH1-52-1T required at least 3.0 M NaCl and 1 mM Mg2+ for growth. Strain MH1-52-1T was able to grow at pH 4.0–6.0 (optimum, pH 4.4–4.5) and 15–45 °C (optimum, 37 °C). The diether phospholipids phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol phosphate methyl ester, derived from both C20C20 and C20C25 archaeol, were present. Four unidentified glycolipids were also detected. The 16S rRNA gene sequence showed the highest similarity to that of Halobacterium noricense A1T (91.7 %); there were lower levels of similarity to other members of the family Halobacteriaceae. The G+C content of its DNA was 61.4 mol%. Based on our phenotypic, genotypic and phylogenetic analyses, it is proposed that the isolate should be classified as a representative of a new genus and species, for which the name Halarchaeum acidiphilum gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Halarchaeum acidiphilum is MH1-52-1T (=JCM 16109T =DSM 22442T =CECT 7534T).

Natronoarchaeum mannanilyticum gen. nov., sp. nov., an aerobic, extremely halophilic archaeon isolated from commercial salt
Strain YSM-123T was isolated from commercial salt made from Japanese seawater in Niigata prefecture. Optimal NaCl and Mg2+ concentrations for growth were 4.0–4.5 M and 5 mM, respectively. The isolate was a mesophilic and slightly alkaliphilic haloarchaeon, whose optimal growth temperature and pH were 37 °C and pH 8.0–9.0. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis suggested that strain YSM-123T is a member of the phylogenetic group defined by the family Halobacteriaceae, but there were low similarities to type strains of other genera of this family (≤90 %); for example, Halococcus (similarity <89 %), Halostagnicola (<89 %), Natronolimnobius (<89 %), Halobiforma (<90 %), Haloterrigena (<90 %), Halovivax (<90 %), Natrialba (<90 %), Natronobacterium (<90 %) and Natronococcus (<90 %). The G+C content of the DNA was 63 mol%. Polar lipid analysis revealed the presence of phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerophosphate methyl ester, disulfated diglycosyl diether and an unknown glycolipid. On the basis of the data presented, we propose that strain YSM-123T should be placed in a new genus and species, Natronoarchaeum mannanilyticum gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain of Natronoarchaeum mannanilyticum is strain YSM-123T (=JCM 16328T =CECT 7565T).

Cells were strictly anaerobic, Gram-stain-negative, non-sporulating, motile by means of a single flagellum or tufted flagella, and curved or wavy rod-shaped (11–25 μm long). The temperature and pH for optimum growth were 30 °C and 7.5. The strain grew best in basal medium without the addition of NaCl. Methane was produced from H2 and formate. Acetate or yeast extract was required for growth. The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strain Ki8-1T was 45.3 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain Ki8-1T was a member of the genus Methanospirillum and showed 95.1 % sequence similarity to Methanospirillum hungatei NBRC 100397T. On the basis of its phenotypic characteristics and phylogenetic position, strain Ki8-1T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Methanospirillum, for which the name Methanospirillum lacunae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Ki8-1T (NBRC 104920T =JCM 16384T =DSM 22751T). Emended descriptions of the genus Methanospirillum and of Methanospirillum hungatei are also provided.

Halogeometricum rufum sp. nov., a halophilic archaeon from a marine solar saltern, and emended description of the genus Halogeometricum
Two halophilic archaea, strains RO1-4T and RO1-64, were isolated from a marine solar saltern in Jiangsu, China. Cells of the two strains were pleomorphic, motile, and stained Gram-negative. Colonies were red-pigmented. Strains RO1-4T and RO1-64 were able to grow at 25–55 °C (optimum 40–42 °C), at 2.1–5.1 M NaCl (optimum 3.9 M NaCl), at 0.05–0.7 M MgCl2 (optimum 0.3 M MgCl2) and at pH 6.0–8.5 (optimum pH 7.0). Cells lyse in distilled water and the minimal NaCl concentration to prevent cell lysis is 12 % (w/v). On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strains RO1-4T and RO1-64 were closely related to Halogeometricum borinquense PR3T (98.0 and 98.2 % similarity, respectively) and Halosarcina pallida BZ256T (97.8 and 97.9 %). The major polar lipids of the two strains were phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol phosphate methyl ester and two glycolipids (S-DGD-1 and DGD-1). The DNA G+C contents of strains RO1-4T and RO1-64 are 64.9 and 62.4 mol%, respectively. The DNA–DNA hybridization value between strains RO1-4T and RO1-64 was 83.0 % and both strains showed low DNA–DNA relatedness with Halogeometricum borinquense PR3T (42.5 and 50.1 % relatedness, respectively) and Halosarcina pallida BZ256T (37.6 and 42.1 % relatedness). It was concluded that strains RO1-4T and RO1-64 represent a novel species of the genus Halogeometricum, for which the name Halogeometricum rufum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is RO1-4T (=CGMCC 1.7736T =JCM 15770T).

Siphonobacter aquaeclarae gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel member of the family ‘Flexibacteraceae’, phylum Bacteroidetes
More LessA Gram-negative bacterium, designated P2T, was isolated from the biofilm developed on the inner surface of an ultrapure cooling water system in a Hungarian power plant and was characterized by a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain P2T was affiliated with the family ‘Flexibacteraceae’ in the phylum Bacteroidetes. Its closest relative was Flectobacillus lacus CL-GP79T (88.7 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity) followed by Arcicella rosea TW5T (86.5 %), Arcicella aquatica NO-502T (86.4 %), Flectobacillus roseus GFA-11T (86.3 %) and Flectobacillus major DSM 103T (85.4 %). Cells of strain P2T were facultatively anaerobic, non-motile rods. The major fatty acids were C16 : 1 ω5c (42.5 %), iso-C15 : 0 2-OH (17.2 %), iso-C17 : 0 3-OH (16.1 %) and iso-C15 : 0 (8.5 %). The major menaquinone was MK-7 and the predominant polar lipid was phosphatidylethanolamine. The DNA G+C content was 54.5 mol%. Thus, the phenotypic and genotypic analyses clearly showed that strain P2T is considerably different from members of other genera in the family ‘Flexibacteraceae’. Based on these results, it is concluded that strain P2T represents a novel species in a new genus, for which the name Siphonobacter aquaeclarae gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed, with type strain P2T (=DSM 21668T =NCAIM B 02328T).

Bacteroides faecis sp. nov., isolated from human faeces
More LessTwo anaerobic, Gram-negative, non-motile and non-spore-forming bacterial strains, designated MAJ27T and MAJ26, were isolated from human faeces. Both isolates grew optimally at 37 °C, were oxidase- and catalase-negative, were sensitive to bile and produced acid from fermentation of several substrates, including glucose. A study based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that both isolates were closely related to type strains of species of the genus Bacteroides. Comparisons of the isolates with Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron VPI 5482T and Bacteroides finegoldii JCM 13345T showed high levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (98.6–98.7 and 96.9–97.0 %, respectively), but low levels of DNA–DNA relatedness (≤22 %). The DNA G+C content (42.7±1 mol%) and the major fatty acid (anteiso-C15 : 0, 39.3–42.5 %) supported the assignment of the isolates to the genus Bacteroides. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, genotypic and phylogenetic studies, we propose that strains MAJ27T and MAJ26 be classified as representing a novel species, Bacteroides faecis sp. nov. The type strain is MAJ27T (=KCTC 5823T=JCM 16478T).

Dyadobacter soli sp. nov., a starch-degrading bacterium isolated from farm soil
More LessA Gram-negative, non-motile, aerobic bacterial strain, designated MJ20T, was isolated from farm soil near Daejeon (South Korea) and was characterized taxonomically by using a polyphasic approach. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain MJ20T belongs to the family Cytophagaceae, class Sphingobacteria, and was related most closely to Dyadobacter fermentans DSM 18053T (98.9 % sequence similarity), Dyadobacter beijingensis JCM 14200T (98.0 %) and Dyadobacter ginsengisoli KCTC 12589T (96.4 %). The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strain MJ20T was 48.5 mol%. The detection of MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone and a fatty acid profile with summed feature 4 (C16 : 1 ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH), iso-C15 : 0, C16 : 0 and C16 : 1 ω5c as major components supported the affiliation of strain MJ20T to the genus Dyadobacter. The new isolate exhibited relatively low levels of DNA–DNA relatedness with respect to D. fermentans DSM 18053T (mean±sd of three determinations, 47±7 %) and D. beijingensis JCM 14200T (38±8 %). On the basis of its phenotypic and genotypic properties together with phylogenetic distinctiveness, strain MJ20T (=KCTC 22481T =JCM 16232T) should be classified in the genus Dyadobacter as the type strain of a novel species, for which the name Dyadobacter soli sp. nov. is proposed.

Pedobacter bauzanensis sp. nov., isolated from soil
More LessA Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, non-motile bacterium, designated BZ42T, was isolated from the soil of an industrial site. Strain BZ42T was able to grow at 5–25 °C. The major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0 (46.2 %), C16 : 1 ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH (23.2 %) and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH (9.1 %). The predominant menaquinone was MK-7. The genomic DNA G+C content was 36.5 mol% (HPLC). 16S rRNA gene sequence phylogenetic analysis revealed that strain BZ42T was a member of the genus Pedobacter, family Sphingobacteriaceae, and 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities between strain BZ42T and the type strains of species of the genus Pedobacter with validly published names were 90.4–93.2 %. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic distinctiveness, strain BZ42T was considered to represent a novel species of the genus Pedobacter, for which the name Pedobacter bauzanensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is BZ42T (=DSM 22554T =CGMCC 1.10187T =CIP 110134T).
