Optimal growth occurred at 37 °C, pH 7.5 and with 4.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Q-8 was the sole respiratory quinone. The major cellular fatty acids in strain XDB06T were iso-C15 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0. The polar lipids of strain XDB06T were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified glycolipids and four unidentified phospholipids. The genomic DNA G+C content of the strain was 65.0 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain XDB06T clusters within the genus Wenzhouxiangella and is most closely related to Wenzhouxiangella . marina MCCC 1K00261T, with a 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 96.50 %. Based on data from the current polyphasic study, strain XDB06T represents a novel species of the genus Wenzhouxiangella , for which the name Wenzhouxiangella sediminis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is XDB06T (=KCTC 52041T=MCCC 1K02285T). %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijsem.0.001393
