A Gram-negative strain, B11T, was isolated from tidal flat sediment in Yeosu, Republic of Korea. Strain B11T did not require NaCl for growth and grew between 18 and 44 °C. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain B11T was associated with the genus Alishewanella and was closely related to the type strain of Alishewanella fetalis (98.3 % similarity). Within the phylogenetic tree, the novel isolate shared a branching point with A. fetalis. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences and DNA–DNA relatedness, as well as physiological and biochemical tests, indicated genotypic and phenotypic differences between strain B11T and the type strain of A. fetalis. Thus, strain B11T is proposed as a representative of a novel species, Alishewanella aestuarii sp. nov.; the type strain is B11T (=KCTC 22051T =DSM 19476T).

The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain B11T is EF660759.
