abstract= Two yellow-pigmented, rod-shaped, non-motile, Gram-reaction-negative and aerobic bacterial strains, designated KYW560T and KYW563T, were isolated from seawater collected from Gwangyang Bay, Republic of Korea. The isolates required sea salts for growth. Flexirubin-type pigments were absent. The common major cellular fatty acids (>5 % of total) of the two strains were C16 : 0, C18 : 0, iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c). Strain KYW560T also contained iso-C15 : 0 3-OH and C20 : 1ω9c as major fatty acids. The main polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid and two unidentified lipids. The predominant isoprenoid quinone was MK-6. The DNA G+C contents of strains KYW560T and KYW563T were 41.0±0.7 and 38.3±0.4 mol% (mean±sd of three determinations), respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the isolates belonged to the family Flavobacteriaceae , and were related to the genus Algibacter . Based on data from this taxonomic study using a polyphasic approach, it is proposed that the isolates represent novel species of the genus Algibacter , for which the names Algibacter agarivorans sp. nov. (type strain, KYW560T = KCTC 23855T = JCM 18285T) and Algibacter agarilyticus sp. nov. (type strain, KYW563T = KCTC 23857T = JCM 18275T) are proposed. Reclassification of Marinivirga aestuarii as Algibacter aestuarii comb. nov. and emended description of the genus Algibacter are also proposed.,
