Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strains SYSU GA16112T and SYSU GA16107 belong to the family Dysgonamonadaceae. Cells of strains SYSU GA16112T and SYSU GA16107 were Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped and non-motile. The major fatty acids (>10 %) of strains SYSU GA16112T and SYSU GA16107 were identified as anteiso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0 3OH. The polar lipid profile of strain SYSU GA16112T was found to consist of phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified aminophospholipids, two unidentified phosphoglycolipids, two unidentified aminolipids and one unidentified polar lipid, while that of strain SYSU GA16107 consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified polar lipids, three unidentified aminophospholipids, two unidentified phosphoglycolipids and one unidentified aminolipid. The genomic DNA G+C contents of strains SYSU GA16112T and SYSU GA16107 were determined to be 41.90 and 41.89 %, respectively, and the average nucleotide identity value between them was 99.99 %. Based on their morphological and physiological properties, and results of phylogenetic analyses, strains SYSU GA16112T and SYSU GA16107 are considered to represent a novel species of a novel genus, for which the name Seramator thermalis gen. nov., sp. nov. (type strain SYSU GA16112T=CGMCC 1.5281T=KCTC 15753T) is proposed.", }
