Abstract

A sponge-associated strain, KMM 7019, was investigated in a polyphasic taxonomic study. The bacterium was strictly aerobic, heterotrophic, Gram-negative, yellow-pigmented, motile by gliding and oxidase-, catalase-, -galactosidase- and alkaline phosphatase-positive. A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain KMM 7019 is closely related to members of the genus , namely , and (97·7–98 % sequence similarities). The DNA–DNA relatedness between the strain studied and species ranged from 27 to 31 %, clearly demonstrating that KMM 7019 belongs to a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KMM 7019 (=KCTC 12560=LMG 23205).
