The taxonomic position of a novel bacterial strain, Ch06T, isolated from an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor was determined. Strain Ch06T was Gram-negative, aerobic, motile and oxidase- and catalase-positive. A comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed a clear affiliation of strain Ch06T to the Alphaproteobacteria and it was most closely related to Zoogloea ramigera ATCC 19623 and Mycoplana dimorpha IAM 13154T (97·9 and 96·3 % sequence similarity, respectively). The major respiratory quinone was Q-10 and the predominant fatty acids were C16 : 0, 3-OH C16 : 0, C18 : 0, C19 : 0 cyclo 
8c and summed feature 7 (C18 : 17c/9t/12t, C18 : 17c/9c/12t). On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic characteristics, the novel isolate was assigned to a new genus, Shinella gen. nov., as Shinella granuli gen. nov., sp. nov. (type strain Ch06T=KCTC 12237T=JCM 13254T). It is proposed that Zoogloea ramigera ATCC 19623 is reclassified into the novel genus Shinella as Shinella zoogloeoides sp. nov. (type strain ATCC 19623T=IAM 12669T=I-16-MT).
Published online ahead of print on 21 October 2005 as DOI 10.1099/ijs.0.63942-0.
The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain Ch06T is AY995149.
