Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that [Alysiella] sp. IAM 14971 (=ATCC 29468) is closely related to the genus Moraxella of the γ-Proteobacteria (96–97 % similarity). The newly obtained phenotypic data also indicate that [Alysiella] sp. IAM 14971 is distinct from the genus Alysiella and similar to the genus Moraxella. On the basis of these results, the strain should be classified in the genus Moraxella, as Moraxella oblonga sp. nov. The type strain is IAM 14971T (=ATCC 29468T).
