A novel psychrotolerant, Gram-negative, motile bacterium, designated strain 328T, was isolated from sea-ice samples collected off the Canadian Basin of the Arctic Ocean (7 ° 23′ 14″ N 14 ° 06′ 55″ W). Strain 328T was able to grow at 0–37 °C, with optimum growth at 25–27 °C. It possessed phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol as major phospholipids and C10 : 0 3-OH (31.78 %), C18 : 1 ω7c (27.50 %) and iso-C15 : 0 2-OH and/or C16 : 1 ω7c (19.22 %) as predominant cellular fatty acids. The DNA G+C content of strain 328T was 45.2 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain 328T was a member of the genus Marinomonas (92.7–96.0 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity). On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic distinctiveness, strain 328T was considered to represent a novel species of the genus Marinomonas. The name Marinomonas arctica sp. nov. is proposed, with strain 328T (=CGMCC 1.6498T=JCM 14976T) as the type strain.
