Growth was observed at 11–36 °C, at pH 6.5–10.0 and with 0.4–7.0 % NaCl. The predominant cellular fatty acids when grown at 20 °C were iso-C15 : 0 (44.2 %), iso-C15 : 1 G (34.3 %), iso-C17 : 0 3-OH (8.7 %) and summed feature 3 (comprising iso-C15 : 0 2-OH and/or C16 : 1ω7c; 2.3 %). The major respiratory quinone was MK-6. Phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, three unidentified lipids, three unidentified aminophospholipids, one unidentified phospholipid, four unidentified aminolipids and three unidentified glycolipids were identified as major polar lipids. The DNA G+C content was 34.3 mol%. On the basis of the data from our polyphasic taxonomic study, strain YH207T should be classified in a novel species in the genus Brumimicrobium , for which the name Brumimicrobium mesophilum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YH207T ( = KCCM 42331T  = JCM 14063T). Emended descriptions of the genus Brumimicrobium and Brumimicrobium glaciale Bowman et al. 2003 are also given., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijs.0.042614-0
