A strictly aerobic, non-motile, short rod-shaped actinomycete, designated strain FR1436T, was isolated from sand sediment from a beach on Dokdo Island, Republic of Korea. The major menaquinone was MK-8(H4), the predominant cellular fatty acid was iso-C16 : 0 (40.4 %) and the G+C content of the DNA was 69.1 mol%. A phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain FR1436T formed a lineage within the genus Nocardioides and was closely related to Nocardioides marinisabuli SBS-12T (97.8 % sequence similarity) and Nocardioides salarius CL-Z59T (97.4 %). Phenotypic characteristics and DNA–DNA relatedness data served to distinguish strain FR1436T from N. marinisabuli. On the basis of the evidence presented in this study, strain FR1436T represents a novel species of the genus Nocardioides, for which the name Nocardioides dokdonensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is FR1436T (=KCTC 19309T =JCM 14815T).
