A novel Ferrimonas species is described on the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic studies. Four halophilic organisms were isolated from marine sand and marine macroalgae samples by using high-pH marine agar 2216. An analysis of the nearly complete 16S rRNA gene sequences of these new isolates indicated that they were phylogenetically close (16S rRNA gene sequence similarity >99·5 %, gyrB gene sequence similarity >97·8 %), and were most closely related to Ferrimonas balearica (16S rRNA gene sequence similarity 97·197·3 %, gyrB gene sequence similarity 84·485·0 %). Chemotaxonomic data (major menaquinone MK7; major fatty acids C16 : 0 and C18 : 1
9c) supported the affiliation of the new isolates to the genus Ferrimonas. The results of physiological and biochemical tests allowed phenotypic differentiation of the isolates from F. balearica. It is therefore proposed that the new isolates represent a novel species with the name Ferrimonas marina sp. nov. and type strain A4D-4T (=MBIC06480T=DSM 16917T).

The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession numbers for the 16S rRNA gene sequences of the strains examined here are AB193748AB193756, and those for the gyrB gene sequences are AB193757AB193766.
Details of the strains isolated in this study are given in a supplementary table in IJSEM Online.
