The organism grew optimally at 28 °C, in pH 6.0–7.0 and in the presence of 3.0 % (w/v) NaCl. The strain required seawater or artificial seawater for growth and NaCl alone did not support growth. Strain A6024T contained ubiquinone 10 as the sole respiratory quinone and C18 : 1 ω7c (75.2 %) as the most abundant fatty acid. The predominant polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, one unidentified aminolipid and two unidentified lipids. The DNA G+C content of strain A6024T was 59.9 mol%. The results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the novel strain was related most closely to Aliiroseovarius halocynthiae MA1-10T, Aliiroseovarius pelagivivens GYSW-22T and Aliiroseovarius crassostreae CV919-312T with 98.3, 97.6 and 97.4 % sequence similarities, respectively. The calculated average nucleotide identity values and DNA–DNA hybridization values between strain A6024T and the phylogenetically related Aliiroseovarius species were in the range 76.0–85.6 % and 19.6–29.4 %, respectively. On the basis of the results of polyphasic analyses, strain A6024T represents a novel species of the genus Aliiroseovarius , for which the name Aliiroseovarius marinus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is A6024T (=KCTC 72114T=MCCC 1K03595T). %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijsem.0.003757
