“…At the time of writing, 13 species with validly published names had been described, with members of the species commonly isolated from habitats such as solar salterns, hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) dump sites, rhizospheric soils, desert soils and sea water (Subhash et al, 2013b;Dwivedi et al, 2013;Xu et al, 2012;Raichand et al, 2011;Zhou et al, 2007;Nedashkovskaya et al, 2005;Kang et al, 2013). Five species were originally isolated in India, including: Pontibacter niistensis NII-0909 T (Dastager et al, 2010), Pontibacter lucknowensis DM9 T (Dwivedi et al, 2013), Pontibacter odishensis JC130 T (Subhash et al, 2013b), Pontibacter ramchanderi LP43 T (Singh et al, 2013b) and Pontibacter indicus LP100 T (Singh et al, 2013a). Two species, 'Pontibacter rhizosphera' IMTB-1969 T (Raichand et al, 2011) and 'Pontibacter salisaro' HMC5104 T (Joung et al, 2011), have been described in publications; however, their names have yet to be validly published.…”

Two strains of bacteria, JC213 T and JC215 T , were isolated from desert soil. Colonies were red to pink and cells Gram-stain-negative. Both strains were oxidase-and catalase-positive and hydrolysed casein. In both strains, phosphatidylethanolamine was the major polar lipid, iso-C 15 : 0 was the major fatty acid and the bacteriohopane derivative, BHD1, was the major hopanoid. The genomic DNA G+C contents of strains JC213 T and JC215 T were 52.7 and 46.3 mol%, respectively. 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons indicated that both strains belong to the genus Pontibacter within the family Cytophagaceae and the phylum Bacteroidetes. Strain JC213 T showed the highest sequence similarity to Pontibacter populi HLY7-15 T (96.6 %) and with other species of the genus Pontibacter sequence similarity was less than 96 %. Strain JC215 T exhibited highest sequence similarity with Pontibacter lucknowensis DM9 T (95.1 %) and shared 95 % or less sequence similarity with other species of the genus Pontibacter. The sequence similarity between strains JC213 T and JC215 T was 95.8 %. Distinct morphological, physiological and genotypic differences from previously described taxa support JC213 T and JC215 T being representatives of two novel species of the genus Pontibacter, for which the names Pontibacter ruber sp. nov. and Pontibacter deserti sp. nov. are proposed and the type strains are JC213 T (5KCTC 32442 T 5LMG 27669 T ) and JC215 T (5KCTC 32443 T 5LMG 27670 T ), respectively.

Strain RP1 T , a Gram-stain-positive, non-motile, non-spore-forming, coccus-shaped bacterium, was isolated from drainage of India Pesticides Limited, a lindane-producing unit situated at Chinhat, Lucknow, India. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain RP1 T belongs to the family Propionibacteriaceae and was closely related to the members of the genus Tessaracoccus with a similarity range of 95.4-97.6 %. Strain RP1 T was facultatively anaerobic, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive and capable of nitrate reduction. Strain RP1 T contained peptidoglycan type A3c9, with LL-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid and glycine at position 1 of the peptide subunit. The major cellular fatty acid of strain RP1 T was anteiso-C 15 : 0 but a significant amount of iso-C 14 : 0 was also detected. MK-9(H 4 ) was the major respiratory quinone and polyamines detected were spermine and spermidine. The polar lipids included diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, two unknown glycolipids and two unknown phospholipids. The G+C content of the DNA was 66.7 mol%. The levels of DNA-DNA relatedness between RP1 T and Tessaracoccus lubricantis KSS-17Se T , Tessaracoccus oleiagri SL014B-20A1 T and Tessaracoccus flavescens SST-39 T were 49.8, 34.8 and 23.5 %, respectively. Based on the phenotypic and phylogenetic data presented, strain RP1 T can be differentiated from previously described species of the genus Tessaracoccus, and thus represents a novel species, for which the name Tessaracoccus flavus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is RP1 T (5DSM 100159 T 5MCC 2769 T 5KCTC 39686 T ).The genus Tessaracoccus was first described by Maszenan et al. (1999) as the member of the family Propionibacteriaceae (Delwiche, 1957), the description of which has been emended twice (Stackebrandt et al., 1997;Zhi et al., 2009) The type strains of the genus Tessaracoccus are Gramstain-positive, facultatively anaerobic (except T. lubricantis), non-spore-forming, non-motile, oval, coccus-to rodshaped bacteria. The cell-wall peptidoglycan is of type A3c9, with LL-diaminopimelic acid (LL-Dpm) as the diagnostic diamino-acid. MK-9(H 4 ) is the major respiratory quinone and anteiso-C 15 : 0 is the predominant cellular fatty acid (Maszenan et al., 1999).We have already characterized several novel bacterial species from stressed environments including fly ash dumping sites of thermal power plants in Delhi and Kanpur, India (Prakash & Lal, 2006;Prakash et al., 2007), oil-contaminated site, Panipat oil refinery, India (Gupta et al., 2008(Gupta et al., , 2009, and a hexachlorocyclohexane dumpsite, situated at Ummari village, Lucknow, India (Kumar et al., 2008(Kumar et al., , 2015Singh & Lal, 2009;Verma et al., 2009Verma et al., , 2015Sharma et al., 2010;Malhotra et al., 2012;Dwivedi et al., 2013; Singh et al., 2013Singh et al., , 2014Singh et al., , 2015 Mahato et al., 2015).

A Gram-staining negative, reddish-pink, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterial strain designated W29 T , was isolated from a hexachlorocyclohexane-contaminated dumpsite located in the northern part of India at Ummari Village, Lucknow. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain W29 T formed a lineage within the genus Algoriphagus and exhibited highest sequence similarity to Algoriphagus trabzonensis MS7 T (98.8 %), followed by Algoriphagus alkaliphilus AC-74 T (97.1 %). The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain W29 T and other species of the genus Algoriphagus ranged from 93.3-98.8 %. The DNA-DNA relatedness between strain W29 T and A. trabzonensis MS7 T was 47 % and with other related strains was found to be less than 45 %, confirming strain W29 T represents a novel species. The DNA G+C content of strain W29 T was 46.2 mol%. Strain W29 T was oxidase-and catalase-positive. The major fatty acids (>10 %) of strain W29 T were iso-C 15 : 0 , summed feature 9 (comprising 10-methyl C 16 : 0 and/or iso-C 17 : 1 !9c) and summed feature 3 (comprising C 16 : 1 !6c and/or C 16 : 1 !7c). The respiratory quinone was MK-7. The polar lipid profile consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, two unidentified aminolipids, an unidentified aminophospholipid, an unidentified phospholipid and unidentified lipids. On the basis of the results obtained from DNA-DNA hybridization, and biochemical and physiological tests in this study, strain W29 T represents a novel species of the genus Algoriphagus for which the name Algoriphagus roseus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is W29 T (=KCTC 42940 T =MCC 2876 T =DSM 100160 T ).
