Strain HAG 010767T was isolated from desert soil from Namibia during a screening programme. On the basis of analysis of 16S rDNA, the principal amino acid of the peptidoglycan, cell-wall sugars, fatty acids and polar lipids, it was possible to identify this strain as a member of the genus Actinomadura. Although DNA–DNA reassociation experiments revealed 72 % DNA similarity between strain HAG 010767T and Actinomadura kijaniata DSM 43764T, significant differences in the colour of the mycelium and physiological properties indicate that strain HAG 010767T represents a novel species of this genus, for which the name Actinomadura namibiensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is strain HAG 010767T (=DSM 44197T=NRRL B-24153T).

Published online ahead of print on 9 September 2002 as DOI 10.1099/ijs.0.02286-0.
