RESUMO
A Gram-stain-negative, catalase- and oxidase-positive, non-motile bacterium, designated F02T, was isolated from of gut of Cincticostellalevanidovae (Tshernova). Growth occurred at a temperature range of 4-30 °C, at pH 6-9 and in the presence of 0-0.5â% (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain F02T shared the highest similarity to that of the type strain of Hydromonas duriensis A2P5T (96.82â%). The major isoprenoid quinone was Q-8. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. The major cellular fatty acids were summed feature 3 (C16â:â1ω7c/C16â:â1ω6c) and iso-C13â:â0 3-OH. The polyamines were cadaverine and putrescine. Combined data from phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses demonstrated that strain F02T represents a novel genus and species, for which the name Ephemeroptericolacinctiostellae gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Ephemeroptericola cinctiostellae gen. nov., sp. nov. is F02T (=FBCC 500047T=KCTC 62567T=JCM 32722T).
