Abstract

Abstract

A chemotaxonomic analysis of 14 species revealed the phenotypic heterogeneity of this genus. The type species, and 11 other species share similar isoprenoid quinones, fatty acids, and polar lipids. Two species, and including subsp. and subsp. were characterized by a pattern of chemotaxonomic properties that was clearly distinct from the pattern obtained for the authentic species. The results of a previous phylogenetic analysis of 16S ribosomal DNA and 5S rRNA indicated that the type species and its relatives are distantly related to members of the genus whereas a member of the other group was found to be phylogenetically related to, but clearly distinct from, members of the family On the basis of these phenotypic and genomic differences, we propose the name gen. nov. for a new genus containing the previously misclassified species and describe comb, nov., comb, nov., and comb. nov. The type species of the new genus is and the type strain is DSM 43850 (= ATCC 25242).
