“…The two isolates were found to have a chemotaxonomic profile consistent with their classification in the genus Dermacoccus (Stackebrandt et al, 1995;Pathom-aree et al, 2006a). They were also characterized by the presence of Nacetylated muramic acid, L-lysine as the diamino acid, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol as major polar lipids (phospholipid type I sensu Lechevalier et al, 1977), dihydrogenated menaquinones with eight isoprene units as the predominant isoprenologue, fatty acids rich in branched-chain components and by the absence of mycolic acids.…”

“…(Stackebrandt et al, 1995;Becker et al, 2002). Aside from our findings, anteiso-C 15 : 0 was not found to be a major fatty acid for Dermacoccus nishinomiyaensis (Stackebrandt et al, 1995) or for close relatives such as Demetria terragena (Groth et al, 1997), Dermatophilus congolensis (McNabb et al, 1997) or Kineosphaera limosa (Liu et al, 2002). In contrast, Kytococcus schroeteri and Kytococcus sedentarius contain minor proportions of this component (3?5 and 1?2 %, respectively; Stackebrandt et al, 1995;Becker et al, 2002) and Kocuria species significant proportions (approximately 50-70 %; Stackebrandt et al, 1995;Kovács et al, 1999;Schumann et al, 1999).…”

The taxonomic positions of two actinobacterial strains isolated from Mariana Trench sediment were established using a combination of genotypic and phenotypic data. The strains, isolates MT2.1 T and MT2.2 T , formed a distinct phyletic line in the Micrococcineae 16S rRNA gene tree together with Dermacoccus abyssi NCIMB 14084 T . The isolates had chemical and phenotypic properties typical of members of the genus Dermacoccus and could be distinguished sharply from one another and from the type strains of Dermacoccus abyssi and Dermacoccus nishinomiyaensis using DNA-DNA relatedness data. A range of phenotypic properties served to distinguish the two novel strains from one another and from the type strains of established Dermacoccus species. The G+C contents of the DNAs of strains MT2.1 T and MT2.2 T were 66?8 and 69?1 mol%, respectively. It is evident that the two isolates merit recognition as novel species within the genus Dermacoccus. The names proposed for these taxa are Dermacoccus barathri sp. nov. (type strain MT2.1 T =DSM 17574 T =NCIMB 14081 T ) and Dermacoccus profundi sp. nov. (type strain MT2.2 T =DSM 17575 T =NCIMB 14084 T ).

Two Gram-positive coccoid, non-motile bacteria with L-ornithine as diagnostic diamino acid of the peptidoglycan and an interpeptide bridge of L-Orn t Gl y,,,,, t D-GIu were isolated from a sample of garden soil. The major menaquinone is MK-8(H4). 13-methyl and 12-methyl tetradecanoic acids are the predominant fatty acids. The polar lipids are phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylserine and two unknown phospholipids. Mycolic acids are absent. The DNA base composition is 72 mol0/o G+C. Recent comparative 16s rDNA studies revealed that strains HKI 0125T and HKI 0131 represent a novel lineage adjacent to the family lntrasporangiaceae of the order Acfinomycetales but distinct from the previously described genera of this family. On the basis of the genotypic, chemotaxonomic, morphological and physiological characteristics of these two isolates it is proposed to classify HKI 0125T and HKI 0131 in a new genus and species for which the name Ornithinicoccus hortensis gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HKI 0125T (= DSM 12335').
