abstract= A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped, orange-pigmented strain, WDS4A13T, was isolated from a marine solar saltern in Weihai, China. Strain WDS4A13T grew under optimal conditions of pH 7.0–8.0, 33 °C and with 6 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain WDS4A13T belonged to the genus Psychroflexus . The levels of similarity between the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain WDS4A13T and those of the type strains of recognized species of the genus Psychroflexus were 92.0–97.3 %. The polar lipid profile of the novel isolate consisted of two unidentified phospholipids, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, a glycolipid and an unidentified lipid as the major polar lipids. The predominant menaquinone was MK-6, and iso-C15 : 1 G, iso-C15 : 0 and C15 : 0 were the major fatty acids. The DNA G+C content was 35.2 mol%. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data, strain WDS4A13T represents a novel species within the genus Psychroflexus , for which the name Psychroflexus saliphilus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is WDS4A13T (=MCCC 1H00134T=KCTC 52043T).,
