As a part of the China Microbiome Initiatives, we cultivated and characterized the gut microbiome of cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis). In this report, we communicate the characterization and taxonomy of eight bacterial strains that were obtained from faecal samples of captive cynomolgus monkeys. The results revealed that they represented eight novel bacterial species. The proposed names of the eight novel species are Alkaliphilus flagellatus (type strain MSJ-5T=CGMCC 1.45007T=KCTC 15974T), Butyricicoccus intestinisimiae MSJd-7T (MSJd-7T=CGMCC 1.45013T=KCTC 25112T), Clostridium mobile (MSJ-11T=CGMCC 1.45009T=KCTC 25065T), Clostridium simiarum (MSJ-4T=CGMCC 1.45006T=KCTC 15975T), Dysosmobacter acutus (MSJ-2T=CGMCC 1.32896T=KCTC 15976T), Paenibacillus brevis MSJ-6T (MSJ-6T=CGMCC 1.45008T=KCTC 15973T), Peptoniphilus ovalis (MSJ-1T=CGMCC 1.31770T=KCTC 15977T) and Tissierella simiarum (MSJ-40T=CGMCC 1.45012T=KCTC 25071T)., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijsem.0.005276
