Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain SL15-1T was clustered with Kribbella strains, sharing the highest similarity of 16S rRNA gene sequence (96.97 %) with Kribbella sandramycini DSM 15626T. Strain SL15-1T contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, an unknown phospholipid, an unknown lipid and two unknown aminophospholipids as the major polar lipids. MK-9(H4) was the predominant menaquinone, while anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, C17 : 1ω8c and iso-C14 : 0 were the major cellular fatty acids. Its genomic DNA G+C content was 65.3 mol%. The results of physiological and biochemical tests allowed the discrimination of strain SL15-1T from its phylogenetic relatives. Kribbella deserti sp. nov. is therefore proposed with strain SL15-1T (=CGMCC 1.15906T=KCTC 39825T) as the type strain., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijsem.0.001697
