Abstract

The pink-colored and strictly aerobic bacterium strain, designated as TK19036T, was isolated from mesopelagic layer of the Southwest Indian Ocean. This novel isolate can grow at 10–45 °C (optimum, 30 °C), pH 6.0–8.0 (optimum, pH 7.0), and 2–14% NaCl concentrations (w/v) (optimum, 6%). The predominant respiratory quinone was Menaquinone-7. Major polar lipid profiles contained two aminolipids, aminophospholipid, two glycolipids, phosphatidylethanolamine, and three unknown polar lipids. The preponderant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15:0, C16:1 ω5c and iso-C17:0 3-OH. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequence uncovered that the strain TK19036T pertained to the family Catalinimonadaceae under phylum Bacteroidota, and formed a distinct lineage with the closed species Tunicatimonas pelagia NBRC 107804T. The up-to-bacteria-core gene phylogenetic trees also demonstrated a deep and novel branch formed by the strain TK19036T within the family Catalinimonadaceae. Based on chemotaxonomic, phylogenetic and genomic features presented above, strain TK19036T represents a novel species from a novel genus of the family Catalinimonadaceae, for which the name Roseihalotalea indica gen. nov. sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is TK19036T (= CGMCC 1.18940T = NBRC 116371T).
