RESUMEN
A moderately halophilic and strictly aerobic bacterium was isolated from a human stool as part of a study on the diagnosis of childhood malnutrition in Mali. Strain Marseille-Q1616T is a Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, catalase-positive and oxidase-negative bacterium. It has a genome size of 3.91 Mbp with 39.79% G+C content, which contains 3954 protein-coding genes including genes encoding phosphomycin resistance and Listeria monocytogenes, 16 rRNA genes and 64 tRNA genes. Strain Marseille-Q1616T exhibited a 96.3% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity and shared an OrthoANI value of 70.64% (the highest observed) with Virgibacillus kekensis, the phylogenetically closest validly published species. Based on phenotypic and phylogenetic evidence and genomic average nucleotide identity values, we suggest the creation of a new species within the Virgibacillus genus, named Virgibacillus doumboii sp. nov., type strain Marseille-Q1616T (= CSURQ1616).
RESUMEN
Using a culturomics approach, a strain was isolated, identified and characterised following the taxonogenomics concept. Neobacillus massiliamazoniensis sp. nov., strain LF1T (=CSURP1359) was isolated from human stool. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis of strain LF1T (accession number: LK021124) exhibits 98.32% similarity levels with Neobacillus bataviensis strain IDA1115 (accession number: NR_036766.1), the phylogenetically closest related species with standing in nomenclature. The draft genome size of strain LF1T (accession number: CVRB00000000) is 4.6 Mbp with a G+C content of 34.1 mol%. Analysis of phylogenic tree, genomic analysis and phenotypic criteria described here sufficiently prove that this bacterium is different from previously known bacterial species with standing in nomenclature and represents a new Neobacillus species belonging to Firmicutes phylum.
RESUMEN
Using the culturomics method, two strains were isolated, identified, and characterised following the taxonogenomics concept.

RESUMEN
During a case-control study on severe acute malnutrition, strain Marseille-Q1233 was isolated. It is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped and halophilic bacillus isolated from a stool sample of Malian child under the age of 5. The fatty acid profile of the strain consisted of C15:0-anteiso and C14:0-iso as major components. Digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity calculation showed 23.10% and 80.81% similarity respectively between strain Marseille-Q1233 and Virgibacillus siamensis strain Marseille-P2607, the phylogenetically closely related species with standing in nomenclature. On the basis of these results, we report the description of Virgibacillus ihumii sp. nov. strain Marseille-Q1233 as a new bacterial species.

Strains Marseille-P4001 and Marseille-P3668 are new species from the order Bacteroidales isolated from healthy French volunteers. They are anaerobic Gram-negative rod-shaped bacteria. They exhibited 92.68% and 96.68% 16S rRNA sequence identities with Parabacteroides gordonii strain MS-1 and Parabacteroides chinchillae JCM 17104, respectively, the phylogenetically closest species. Their respective draft genomes measured 5.23 Mb and 3.73 Mb with 39.2 mol% and 40.8 mol% of G + C content. Using a taxonogenomics method, we propose here a brief description of Parabacteroides pacaensis sp. nov., strain Marseille-P4001T and Parabacteroides provencensis sp. nov., strain Marseille-P3668T as new bacterial species.
RESUMEN
Using the taxono-genomics concept, we describe here a strictly anaerobic Gram-positive bacillus. This strain was isolated from the stool sample of a 50-year-old healthy Bedouin woman. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and the whole-genome sequencing showed that this isolate belonged to the genus Gordonibacter in the family Eggerthellaceae. Based on these criteria, we propose the creation of Gordonibacter massiliensis sp. nov., strain Marseille-P2775T (= CSUR P2775).
