abstract= A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile Acinetobacter strain, WCHA30T, was isolated from hospital sewage in West China Hospital of Sichuan University in Chengdu, south-western China. Strain WCHA30T was a non-spore-forming, catalase-positive, oxidase-negative, strictly aerobic coccobacillus. The DNA G+C content was 38 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA, rpoB and gyrB gene sequences revealed that the strain was distinct from any previously described species of the genus Acinetobacter . Strain WCHA30T could be distinguished from all known Acinetobacter species by its ability to assimilate β-alanine but not l-glutamate. Genotypic and phenotypic characteristics from this study indicate that strain WCHA30T should be considered to represent a novel species of the genus Acinetobacter , for which the name Acinetobacter defluvii sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is WCHA30T (=CCTCC AB 2016203T=GDMCC 1.1101T=KCTC 52503T).,
