Strain SYSU D00434T was found to grow at 4–37 °C (optimum, 28–30 °C), pH 6.0–8.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and with 0–1.5 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0–0.5 %). The predominant respiratory quinone was MK-7 and the major fatty acids (>10 %) were C16 : 1  ω5c, iso-C15 : 0, summed feature 3 (C16 : 1  ω6c and/or C16 : 1  ω7c) and summed feature 4 (anteiso-C17 : 1 B and/or iso-C17 : 1 I). The polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified polar lipids, two unidentified aminolipids, two unidentified phospholipids and two unidentified glycolipids. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain SYSU D00434T was 50.6 mol%. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain SYSU D00434T belonged to the family Hymenobacteraceae , and shared a sequence similarity of less than 94.6 % to all validly named taxa. Based on the phenotypic, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic properties, strain D00434T is proposed to represent a new species of a new genus, named Sabulibacter ruber gen. nov., sp. nov., within the family Hymenobacteraceae . The type strain is SYSU D00434T (=CGMCC 1.18624T=KCTC 82276T=MCCC 1K04975T).", }
