Strain SC2-6T grew within the ranges of 10–37 °C (28–30 °C, optimally), pH 6.0–10.0 (pH 7.0–8.0, optimally) and 0–3% NaCl (w/v). The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of strain SC2-6T showed the highest values to Paracoccus kondratievae GBT (96.3%), Paracoccus denitrificans DSM 413T (96.3%) and Paracoccus sanguinis 5503T (96.1%). The phylogenetic tree based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain SC2-6T belonged to the genus Paracoccus and clustered with Paracoccus pacificus F14T. The phylogenetic tree based on the rpoD gene sequences also demonstrated that strain SC2-6T fell into the clade of the genus Paracoccus . The DNA G+C content was 66.9 mol%. The major respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-10 and the major fatty acids (> 10% of the total fatty acids) were summed feature 8 (comprising C18 : 1 ω6c and/or C18 : 1 ω7c). The polar lipids were composed of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, an unidentified glycolipid, two unidentified aminolipids and two unidentified lipids. On the basis of phenotypic, phylogenetic and genomic data, strain SC2-6T was classified in the genus Paracoccus as a member of a novel species, for which the name Paracoccus suum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SC2-6T (=KACC 19328T=NBRC 113110T). %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijsem.0.003226
