Abstract

Three independent isolates (10022, 10 009 and 10011) of a novel catalase-positive, Gram-stain-negative coccus in the genus were obtained from the rectal contents of plateau pika on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau, PR China. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, our newly identified organisms were most closely related to , and with similarities ranging from 98.02 to 98.45 %, followed by seven other species in the genus . Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA and genes showed that our three novel isolates group with members of the genus . Results of the average nucleotide identity (ANI) analysis confirmed that our isolates are of the same species, and the ANI values between type strain 10022 and other species are 74.12–85.06 %, lower than the threshold range of 95–96 %. The major cellular fatty acids for our novel species are C and Cω7/Cω6, which along with their phenotypic characteristics can distinguish our isolates from other species. On the basis of polyphasic analyses, our isolates are proposed to represent a novel species in genus , with the name sp. nov. The type strain is 10022 (=DSM 103441=CGMCC 1.15732).
