Filibacter tadaridae sp. nov., isolated from within a guano pile from a colony of Mexican free-tailed bats Tadarida brasiliensis Kämpfer, Peter and Bizet, Chantal and Clermont, Dominique and Criscuolo, Alexis and Kloepper, Laura N. and Duncan, Makenzie B. and McInroy, John A. and Kloepper, Joseph W. and Schumann, Peter and Glaeser, Stefanie P.,, 69, 1438-1442 (2019), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijsem.0.003334, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= A Gram-stain-positive, aerobic bacterium, TB-66T, was isolated from a pile of bat guano in a cave of New Mexico, USA. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity comparisons, strain TB-66Tgrouped together with Filibacter limicola showing a 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 98.5 % to the type strain. The quinone system of strain TB-66T consisted predominantly of menaquinone MK-7. The polar lipid profile contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine and three unidentified phospholipids. The peptidoglycan type was A4α l-Lys–d-Glu (A11.33). The major fatty acids were C15 : 0 anteiso, C16 : 0, and C16 : 1 ω7c. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 37.6 (±1.8) mol%. On the basis of the genotypic and phenotypic properties it is clear that strain TB-66T represents a member of the genus Filibacter, but is distinct from the only other species in the genus, Filibacter limicola DSM 13886T. We propose a novel species with the name Filibacter tadaridae sp. nov. The type strain is TB-66T (= CIP 111629T= LMG 30660T= CCM 8866T)., language=, type=
