Abstract

A Gram-stain-positive, non-spore-forming bacterium (strain RV113) was isolated from the marine sponge . 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain RV113 belongs to the genus , and is related most closely to VF70612_S1 (96.9 % similarity) and more distantly related (<93 %) to all other species of the genus . The peptidoglycan diamino acid was lysine. Strain RV113 exhibited a quinone system with menaquinone MK-8 as the predominant compound. The polar lipid profile of strain RV113 consisted of the major compounds phosphatidylglycerol and two unidentified phosphoglycolipids. The major fatty acid was anteiso-Cω9. These chemotaxonomic traits are in agreement with those of other speciesof the genus . The results of physiological and biochemical tests allowed the clear phenotypic differentiation of strain RV113 from all recognized species. Strain RV113 is thus considered to represent a novel species, for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is RV113 ( = DSM 27440 = CECT 8425).
