A Gram-reaction-positive, motile, thermophilic spore-forming strain, G1w1 T , was isolated from a hot spring of the Valley of Geysers, Kamchatka (Russia). Based on data from the present polyphasic taxonomic study, including phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA and spo0A gene sequences, the strain is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Geobacillus, for which the name Geobacillus icigianus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is G1w1 T (5VKM B-2853 T 5DSM 28325 T).
