    Abstract:
    An aerobic, Gram-negative, yellow-pigmented, non-motile rod-shaped bacterium designated KMM 9574(T) was isolated from a sand sediment sample collected from the Sea of Japan seashore. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain KMM 9574(T) belonged to the genus Sphingorhabdus sharing a highest sequence similarity to Sphingorhabdus marina JCM 14161(T) 96.8 %. Strain KMM 9574(T) was characterized by the major ubiquinone Q-10, and by the predominance of C(18:1) ω7c, C(16:0) 2-OH, C(16:1) ω7c, C(17:1), followed by C(15:0) 2-OH and C(14:0) 2-OH in its fatty acid profile. Polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylcholine, sphingoglycolipid, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, an unknown phospholipid, and an unknown lipid. The DNA G+C content was 56.5 mol %. Based on phylogenetic analysis and distinctive phenotypic characteristics, strain 9574(T) is concluded to represent a novel species of the genus Sphingorhabdus, for which the name Sphingorhabdus pacificus sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain of the species is strain KMM 9574(T) (= NRIC 0922(T) = JCM 30177(T)).
