A novel gliding marine bacterium (strain 59SAT) was isolated from marine barnacle debris. A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the isolate formed a distinct lineage within the genus Aureispira in the family ‘Saprospiraceae’. The DNA G+C content of strain 59SAT was 38.7 mol%, the major respiratory quinone was MK-7 and the predominant cellular fatty acids were 20 : 4{omega}6c and 16 : 0. On the basis of the data from DNA–DNA hybridization, physiological and chemotaxonomic analyses and 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, strain 59SAT represents a novel species of the genus Aureispira, for which the name Aureispira maritima sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 59SAT (=IAM 15439T=TISTR 1726T).

The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain 59SAT is AB278130.
