A Gram-reaction-positive, endospore-forming, aerobic bacterium, designated strain CY1T, was isolated from iron mineral soil of Hunan Province, China. The isolate was rod-shaped and motile by means of peritrichous flagella. The major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0 and the major quinone was menaquinone 7. The major polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol phosphatidylethanolamine. The genomic DNA G+C content was 50.5 mol% and the major diagnostic diamino acid in cell-wall peptidoglycan was meso-diaminopimelic acid. Phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that strain CY1T is most closely related to Paenibacillus chondroitinus DSM 5051T (97.7 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Paenibacillus pocheonensis Gsoil 1138T (97.4 %) and Paenibacillus frigoriresistens YIM 016T (97.0 %). DNA–DNA hybridization dissociation values were lower than 49 % with the most closely related species. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic evidence, strain CY1T is affiliated to the genus Paenibacillus , but could be distinguished from the species of this genus. A novel species with the name Paenibacillus ferrarius sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CY1T ( = KCTC 33419T = CCTCC AB 2013369T).

A Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, facultatively anaerobic bacterium, designated strain ES3-24T, was isolated from a selenium mineral soil. The isolate was endospore-forming, nitrate-reducing and motile by means of peritrichous flagella. The major menaquinone was menaquinone 7 (MK-7) and the predominant fatty acids (>5 %) were anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, C16 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and two unknown aminophospholipids. Strain ES3-24T contained meso-diaminopimelic acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan and the DNA G+C content was 49.6 mol%. According to phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence, strain ES3-24T was most closely related to Paenibacillus terrigena A35T, with 16S rRNA gene sequence identity of 98.3 %, while the other members of the genus Paenibacillus had 16S rRNA gene sequence identities of less than 95.0 %. DNA–DNA relatedness between strain ES3-24T and P. terrigena CCTCC AB206026T was 39.3 %. In addition, strain ES3-24T showed obvious differences from closely related species in major polar lipids, nitrate reduction and other physiological and biochemical characteristics. The data from our polyphasic taxonomic study reveal that strain ES3-24T represents a novel species of the genus Paenibacillus , for which the name Paenibacillus selenitireducens sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is ES3-24T ( = KCTC 33157T = CCTCC AB2013097T).

Strains LMG 27428T and LMG 27427 were isolated from the caecal content of a chicken and produced butyric, lactic and formic acids as major metabolic end products. The genomic DNA G+C contents of strains LMG 27428T and LMG 27427 were 40.4 and 38.8 mol%. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, both strains were most closely related to the generically misclassified Streptococcus pleomorphus ATCC 29734T. Strain LMG 27428T could be distinguished from S. pleomorphus ATCC 29734T based on production of more lactic acid and less formic acid in M2GSC medium, a higher DNA G+C content and the absence of activities of acid phosphatase and leucine, arginine, leucyl glycine, pyroglutamic acid, glycine and histidine arylamidases, while strain LMG 27428 was biochemically indistinguishable from S. pleomorphus ATCC 29734T. The novel genus Faecalicoccus gen. nov. within the family Erysipelotrichaceae is proposed to accommodate strains LMG 27428T and LMG 27427. Strain LMG 27428T ( = DSM 26963T) is the type strain of Faecalicoccus acidiformans sp. nov., and strain LMG 27427 ( = DSM 26962) is a strain of Faecalicoccus pleomorphus comb. nov. (type strain LMG 17756T = ATCC 29734T = DSM 20574T). Furthermore, the nearest phylogenetic neighbours of the genus Faecalicoccus are the generically misclassified Eubacterium cylindroides DSM 3983T (94.4 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to strain LMG 27428T) and Eubacterium biforme DSM 3989T (92.7 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to strain LMG 27428T). We present genotypic and phenotypic data that allow the differentiation of each of these taxa and propose to reclassify these generically misnamed species of the genus Eubacterium formally as Faecalitalea cylindroides gen. nov., comb. nov. and Holdemanella biformis gen. nov., comb. nov., respectively. The type strain of Faecalitalea cylindroides is DSM 3983T = ATCC 27803T = JCM 10261T and that of Holdemanella biformis is DSM 3989T = ATCC 27806T = CCUG 28091T.

A Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium with monopolar flagella, designated as MC042T, was isolated from the profound head ulcers of farmed Murray cod sampled from Zhejiang Province, China. Analysis of its 16S rRNA gene sequence and multilocus sequence analysis phylogeny showed that strain MC042T belonged to the genus Pseudomonas , showing the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Pseudomonas juntendi BML3T (98.9 %), and less than 98.8 % similarity to other Pseudomonas species with validly published names. Whole-genome sequencing and phylogenetic reconstruction based on a core set of 1563 Pseudomonas genes further indicated that strain MC042T was most closely related to the clade formed by Pseudomonas protegens CHA0T and Pseudomonas saponiphila DSM 975T and distantly related to any of the validly published species of the genus Pseudomonas . Furthermore, strain MC042T could be distinguished from its closely related species of the genus Pseudomonas by its ability to assimilate maltose, d-xylose and melibiose, but not d-mannitol. The principal fatty acids were C16 : 0, summed feature 3 (iso-C15 : 0 2-OH and/or C16 : 1ω7c) and summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c and/or C18 : 1 ω6c). The respiratory quinone was Q-9. Polar lipids of strain MC042T comprised diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, unidentified glycolipids, an unidentified lipid, an unknown glycolipid and aminolipid. Based on its phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic features, strain MC042T is considered to represent a novel species, for which the name Pseudomonas piscis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MC042T (=KCTC 72033T=MCCC 1K03575T).

A novel actinomycete, designated strain NEAU-TCZ24T, was isolated from soil and characterized using a polyphasic approach. The results of phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that the organism should be assigned to the genus Cellulomonas and formed a stable clade with its closest relatives Cellulomonas terrae JCM 14899T (98.4 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Cellulomonas xylanilytica JCM 14281T (97.9 %) and Cellulomonas humilata JCM 11945T (97.7 %). The major menaquinones were identified as MK-9(H4) and MK-8(H4). The phospholipid profile was found to contain diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositolmannoside, a ninhydrin-positiveglycolipid, an unidentified phosphoglycolipid, an unidentified phospholipid and an unidentified lipid. The major fatty acids were identified as anteiso-C15 : 0, C18 : 1ω9c, C16 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. Moreover, morphological and chemotaxonomic properties of NEAU-TCZ24T also confirmed the affiliation of the isolate to the genus Cellulomonas . However, multilocus sequence analysis based on five other house-keeping genes (gyrB, rpoB, recA, relA and atpD), DNA–DNA relatedness, physiological and biochemical data indicated that NEAU-TCZ24T could be distinguished from its closest relatives. Therefore, it is proposed that NEAU-TCZ24T represents a novel species of the genus Cellulomonas , for which the name Cellulomonas rhizosphaerae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is NEAU-TCZ24T (=CCTCC AA 2018042T=JCM 32383T).

A Gram-negative bacterium, designated TF5-37.2-LB10T, was isolated from subsurface water of the Toarcian geological layer of Tournemire, France. Cells were non-motile straight rods that formed cream to light pink colonies on 10-fold diluted LB agar. Strain TF5-37.2-LB10T contained menaquinone 7 and its major fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, summed feature 3 (iso-C15 : 0 2-OH and/or C16 : 1ω7c), iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and iso-C17 : 1ω9c. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 46 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence placed strain TF5-37.2-LB10T within the genus Pedobacter , family Sphingobacteriaceae . Pedobacter composti TR6-06T and Pedobacter oryzae DSM 19973T were the closest phylogenetic relatives (93.5 and 93.3 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, respectively). On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence comparison and physiological and biochemical characteristics, strain TF5-37.2-LB10T represents a novel species of the genus Pedobacter , for which the name Pedobacter tournemirensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is TF5-37.2-LB10T ( = DSM 23085T = CIP 110085T = MOLA 820T).

A novel type of freshwater bacterium was isolated from the prealpine mesotrophic Starnberger See (Bavaria, southern Germany). Cells of strain 382T were Gram-negative and rod-shaped, motile and creamy-white. The isolate was strictly aerobic, catalase- and oxidase-positive, and grew at pH values of 6–9 (optimum, pH 7) and temperatures of 10–37 °C (optimum, 28 °C). The genomic G+C content of strain 382T was 64.1 mol%. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses, strain 382T belongs to the family Sphingomonadaceae and clusters within the genus Sphingomonas . Sphingomonas histidinilytica UM 2T and Sphingomonas wittichii DSM 6014T were the closest relatives, as indicated by the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities (97.1 % and 96.8 %, respectively). Sphingomonas paucimobilis DSM 1098T (the type species of the genus Sphingomonas ) exhibited 95.3 % sequence similarity. This affiliation of strain 382T to the genus Sphingomonas is confirmed by the presence of Q-10 as the major respiratory quinone, two sphingoglycolipids, C14 : 0 2-OH as the major 2-hydroxy fatty acid and sym-homospermidine as the major polyamine. The main cellular fatty acids of strain 382T were C18 : 1ω7c (39 %), C16 : 1ω7c (21 %), C16 : 0 (10 %) and C14 : 0 2-OH (10 %). Based on the phylogenetic distance from other species of the genus Sphingomonas and its unusually high C16 : 1ω7c content, strain 382T represents a novel species of the genus Sphingomonas , for which the name Sphingomonas starnbergensis is proposed. The type strain is 382T ( = DSM 25077T  = LMG 26763T).

An obligately anaerobic, non-motile, Gram-negative and rod-shaped strain (AGMB03916T) was isolated from faeces of a 2-week-old piglet raised at the National Institute of Animal Science in Wanju, Republic of Korea. Growth of strain AGMB03916T occurred at 30–45 °C (optimum, 37 °C), at pH 6–9 (optimum, pH 8) and in the presence of 0.5–1.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Based on the results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses, strain AGMB03916T was closely related to two validly published species of the genus Phocaeicola , Phocaeicola plebeius and Phocaeicola coprocola . The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of strain AGMB03916T compared to P. plebeius M12T (=KCTC 5793T) and P. coprocola M16T (=KCTC 5443T) were 96.3 and 95.0 %, respectively. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain AGMB03916T was 46.4 mol%. The average nucleotide identity values between strain AGMB03916T and the reference strains were 74.9–78.5 %. Cells were able to utilize d-glucose, lactose, sucrose, maltose, salicin, aesculin hydrolysis, cellobiose and raffinose. The major end product of metabolism was acetate. The major cellular fatty acids (>10 %) of the isolate were iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0, C16 : 0, C16 : 0 3-OH and summed feature 11 (iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and/or C18 : 2 DMA). On the basis of the genotypic, biochemical, chemotaxonomic, phenotypic and phylogenetic data, strain AGMB03916T represents a novel species of the genus Phocaeicola , for which the name Phocaeicola faecicola sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is AGMB03916T (=KCTC 25014T=GDMCC 1.2574T).

A novel exopolysaccharide-producing bacterium, designated strain k53T, was isolated from sediment from the Arabia Sea, Indian Ocean. The strain was Gram-negative, motile, strictly aerobic, oxidase-positive and catalase-positive, and required Na+ for growth. Its major isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-8 (Q-8), and its cellular fatty acid profile mainly consisted of C16 : 1ω7c, C16 : 0 and C18 : 1ω7c. The DNA G+C content was 43 mol%. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis suggested that strain k53T is a member of the genus Pseudoalteromonas . Strain k53T exhibited close phylogenetic affinity to Pseudoalteromonas lipolytica LMEB 39T (98.0% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity) and Pseudoalteromonas donghaensis HJ51T (97.3 %).The DNA–DNA reassociation values between strain k53T and P. lipolytica JCM 15903T and P. donghaensis LMG 24469T were 17 % and 12 %, respectively. Owing to the significant differences in phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, and phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence and DNA–DNA relatedness data, the isolate merits classification as a representative of a novel species, for which the name Pseudoalteromonas arabiensis is proposed. The type strain of this species is k53T ( = JCM 17292T = NCIMB 14688T).

Acidobacteria constitute an abundant fraction of the soil microbial community and are currently divided into 26 subdivisions. Most cultivated members of the Acidobacteria are affiliated with subdivision 1, while only a few representatives of subdivisions 3, 4, 8, 10 and 23 have been isolated and described so far. Two novel isolates of subdivision 4 of the Acidobacteria were isolated from subtropical savannah soils and are characterized in the present work. Cells of strains A22_HD_4HT and Ac_23_E3T were immotile rods that divided by binary fission. Colonies were pink and white, respectively. The novel strains A22_HD_4HT and Ac_23_E3T were aerobic mesophiles with a broad range of tolerance towards pH (4.0–9.5 and 3.5–10.0, respectively) and temperature (15–44 and 12–47 °C, respectively). Both showed chemo-organoheterotrophic growth on some sugars, the amino sugar N-acetylgalactosamine, a few amino acids, organic acids and various complex protein substrates. Major fatty acids of A22_HD_4HT and Ac_23_E3T were iso-C15 : 0, summed feature 1 (C13 : 0 3-OH/iso-C15 : 1 H), summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c/C16 : 1ω6c) and anteiso-C17 : 0. The major quinone was MK-8; in addition, MK-7 occurred in small amounts. The DNA G+C contents of A22_HD_4HT and Ac_23_E3T were 53.2 and 52.6 mol%, respectively. The closest described relative was Blastocatella fastidiosa A2-16T, with 16S rRNA gene sequence identity of 93.2 and 93.3 %, respectively. Strains A22_HD_4HT and Ac_23_E3T displayed 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 97.4 % to each other. On the basis of the low DNA–DNA hybridization value, the two isolates represent different species. Based on morphological, physiological and molecular characteristics, the new genus Aridibacter gen. nov. is proposed, with two novel species, the type species Aridibacter famidurans sp. nov. (type strain A22_HD_4HT = DSM 26555T = LMG 27985T) and a second species, Aridibacter kavangonensis sp. nov. (type strain Ac_23_E3T = DSM 26558T = LMG 27597T).
