abstract= A Gram-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming, slightly halophilic bacterial strain, SW-238T, was isolated from sea water collected from the South Sea in Korea, and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. The organism grew optimally at 25–30 °C and in the presence of 2–3 % (w/v) NaCl. Strain SW-238T was characterized chemotaxonomically as containing ubiquinone (Q-8) as the predominant respiratory lipoquinone and C18 : 1 ω9c as the major fatty acid. Its DNA G+C content was 47·6 mol%. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain SW-238T fell within the radiation of the cluster comprising Psychrobacter species. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain SW-238T had similarity levels of 94·8–97·9 % to sequences of the type strains of recognized Psychrobacter species. Levels of DNA–DNA relatedness between strain SW-238T and the type strains of 10 phylogenetically related Psychrobacter species were below 70 %. On the basis of phenotypic and phylogenetic data and genetic distinctiveness, strain SW-238T (=KCTC 12313T=JCM 12601T) was placed in the genus Psychrobacter as the type strain of a novel species, for which the name Psychrobacter celer sp. nov. is proposed.,
