A Gram-negative, aerobic, saffron-coloured marine bacterium, designated HST1-43T, was isolated from beach sediment on the coast in Jeju, Korea, and its taxonomic status was established in a polyphasic study. 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses revealed that the isolate belonged to the family Flavobacteriaceae. The closest phylogenetic neighbours of strain HST1-43T were members of the genera Algibacter, Gaetbulibacter and Yeosuana, with levels of sequence similarity in the range 96.3–96.5 %. The isolate was non-motile and required sea salts or natural seawater for growth. The optimum temperature and pH ranges for growth were 25–30 °C and pH 6.1–8.1, respectively. MK-6 was the major menaquinone. The dominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, C18 : 0, C16 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 and iso-C17 : 0 3-OH. The DNA G+C content was 36.2±0.4 mol%. On the basis of phylogenetic distance and phenotypic characteristics, the isolate is considered to represent a novel genus and species in the family Flavobacteriaceae, for which the name Tamlana crocina gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HST1-43T (=KCTC 12721T=JCM 14021T).


The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain HST1-43T is AM286230.

A transmission electron micrograph of cells of strain HST1-43T is available as a supplementary figure in IJSEM Online.
