Abstract

Sampling of seafood and dairy processing facilities in the north-eastern USA produced 18 isolates of spp. that could not be identified at the species-level using traditional phenotypic and genotypic identification methods. Results of phenotypic and genotypic analyses suggested that the isolates represent two novel species with an average nucleotide identity of less than 92 % with previously described species of the genus . Phylogenetic analyses based on whole genome sequences, 16S rRNA gene and gene sequences confirmed that the isolates represented by type strain FSL M6-0635 and FSL A5-0209 cluster phylogenetically with . Phylogenetic analyses also showed that the isolates represented by type strain FSL A5-0281 cluster phylogenetically with . The name sp. nov. is proposed for the species represented by type strain FSL A5-0281 ( = DSM 28860 = LMG 28311), and the name sp. nov. is proposed for the species represented by type strain FSL M6-0635 ( = DSM 28861 = LMG 28310). Phenotypic and genotypic analyses suggest that neither species is pathogenic.
