A novel aerobic, Gram-negative, rod-shaped, motile bacterium, designated strain 5516S-11T, was isolated from air samples collected in the Suwon region of the Republic of Korea. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that the organism belongs to the genus Massilia; the highest sequence similarity (97.2 %) was found with respect to Massilia aurea DSM 18055T. Cells of strain 5516S-11T contained ubiquinone Q-8 as the predominant isoprenoid quinone and possessed summed feature 3 (C16 : 1{omega}7c/iso-C15 : 0 2-OH; 35.2 %), C16 : 0 (30.6 %) and C18 : 1{omega}7c (11.7 %) as the major fatty acids. DNA–DNA hybridization revealed 32 % relatedness between strain 5516S-11T and M. aurea DSM 18055T. The G+C content of the DNA of strain 5516S-11T was 68.9 mol%. It is clear from the genotypic and phenotypic data presented that strain 5516S-11T represents a novel species of the genus Massilia, for which the name Massilia aerilata sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 5516S-11T (=KACC 12505T =DSM 19289T).

The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain 5516S-11T is EF688526.
