A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, non-motile, aerobic and orange-pigmented marine bacterium, designated strain L53^T, was isolated from an oyster sample collected from the coast of Weihai, China (122.0° E 37.5° N). Growth of strain L53^T occurred at 4–40 °C (optimum, 33 °C), at pH 6.5–8.0 (optimum, pH 7.5) and with 1.0–7.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 3.0 %). Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain L53^T was closely related to Bizionia echini KCTC 22015^T (96.9 %) and Hanstruepera neustonica JCM 19743^T (96.1 %). Strain L53^T was located in a distinct phyletic lineage in a discrete clade associated with H. neustonica JCM 19743^T. The DNA G+C content of strain L53^T was 33.5 mol%. The sole menaquinone was MK-6. The polar lipids comprised one phosphatidylethanolamine, four unidentified aminolipids and four unidentified lipids. The major fatty acids were …
