The actinomycete strains YIM 90001T and YIM 90005T were isolated on starch-casein agar [20 % (w/v) NaCl, pH 7·0] from a soil sample collected from Xinjiang Province in the west of China. The two isolates were aerobic and Gram-positive. The substrate mycelium was fragmented and an aerial mycelium was well developed on Czapek medium. The aerial mycelium formed long spore chains with branched short or long spore chains at maturity, which were straight to flexuous, and spores were non-motile. Based on the results of metabolic, chemotaxonomic and molecular analyses, the two isolates were identified as two new species of the genus Prauserella, for which the names Prauserella halophila for strain YIM 90001T (=DSM 44617T=CCTCC AA001015T) and Prauserella alba for strain YIM 90005T (=DSM 44590T=CCTCC AA001016T) are proposed.

The GenBank accession numbers for the 16S rDNA sequences of strains YIM90001T and YIM90005T are AF466190 and AF435077, respectively.
