According to phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain 5420S-23T revealed 97.5, 97.3, 97.3 and 97.2 % similarity, respectively, to Cellulomonas biazotea DSM 20112T, Cellulomonas cellasea DSM 20118T, Cellulomonas fimi DSM 20113T and Cellulomonas chitinilytica X.bu-bT. The peptidoglycan type of strain 5420S-23T was A4β, containing l-ornithine–d-glutamic acid. The cell-wall sugars were galactose, glucose and xylose. The major fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0 (49.7 %) and C16 : 0 (20.0 %). The major menaquinone was MK-9(H4) and major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol. The DNA G+C content was 74 mol%. The results of DNA–DNA hybridization with strains of closely related Cellulomonas species, in combination with chemotaxonomic and physiological data, demonstrated that isolate 5420S-23T represents a novel Cellulomonas species, for which the name Cellulomonas aerilata sp. nov. is proposed, with strain 5420S-23T (=KACC 20692T =DSM 18649T) as the type strain. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijs.0.2008/002253-0
