-galactosidase- and alkaline phosphatase-positive. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain KMM 3524T was closely related to Salegentibacter holothuriorum and Salegentibacter salegens (sharing 97·7 and 98 % sequence similarity, respectively). DNADNA relatedness levels between strains KMM 6049T and S. holothuriorum KMM 3524T and S. salegens DSM 5424T were 24 and 45 %, respectively, indicating that KMM 6049T belongs to a novel species of the genus Salegentibacter, for which the name Salegentibacter mishustinae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KMM 6049T (=KCTC 12263T=LMG 22584T=NBRC 100592T).
The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence of Salegentibacter mishustinae KMM 6049T is AY576653.

In the course of our study of the microbial community associated with the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius, which is common in the Sea of Japan, an unknown marine bacterium was isolated, designated strain KMM 6049T. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain KMM 6049T falls within the genus Salegentibacter. DNADNA hybridization data clearly indicated that the isolate represents a novel species of the genus Salegentibacter, for which the name Salegentibacter mishustinae sp. nov. is proposed.
Strain KMM 6049T was isolated from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius collected in Troitsa Bay, Gulf of Peter the Great, Sea of Japan, in September 2002 from a water depth of 3 m. For isolation, 0·1 ml tissue homogenates was transferred to marine agar plates. After primary isolation and purification, isolates were cultivated at 28 °C on the same medium and stored at 80 °C in marine broth supplemented with 20 % (v/v) glycerol.
Genomic DNA extraction, PCR and 16S rRNA gene sequencing followed the procedures of Kim et al. (1998)
. The sequence data obtained were aligned with those of representative members of selected genera belonging to the family Flavobacteriaceae using PHYDIT version 3.2 (http://plaza.snu.ac.kr/
jchun/phydit/). Phylogenetic trees were inferred using suitable programs of the PHYLIP package (Felsenstein, 1993
). Phylogenetic distances were calculated from the models of Kimura (1980)
and trees were constructed on the basis of the neighbour-joining (Saitou & Nei, 1987
) and maximum-likelihood (Felsenstein, 1993
) algorithms. Bootstrap analysis was performed with 1000 resamplings using the SEQBOOT and CONSENSE programs of the PHYLIP package.
16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain KMM 6049T is a member of the genus Salegentibacter with closest relative S. holothuriorum KMM 3524T (Fig. 1
). 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities between strain KMM 6049T and S. holothuriorum KMM 3524T and S. salegens DSM 5424T are 98 and 97·7 %, respectively.

Analysis of fatty acid methyl esters was carried out according to the standard protocol of the Microbial Identification System (Microbial ID). The main cellular fatty acids were i15 : 1 (12·3 %), i15 : 0 (7·5 %), a15 : 0 (7·9 %), 15 : 0 (6·7 %), i17 : 0 3-OH (8·6 %) and summed feature 3 (7·9 %), comprising 16 : 1
7 and i15 : 0 2-OH fatty acids.
Flexirubin pigments were examined using the method of Fautz & Reichenbach (1980)
. Oxidative or fermentative utilization of glucose was determined on Hugh & Leifson medium modified for marine bacteria (Lemos et al., 1985
). The methods of Gerhardt et al. (1994)
were used to test the following: Gram-staining reaction; degradation of starch, casein, gelatin, cellulose, chitin, DNA, urea and alginic acids; oxidase-, catalase-,
-galactosidase- and alkaline phosphatase activities; growth at different temperatures, NaCl concentrations and pH; and production of acid from carbohydrates. Utilization of carbon sources, spreading growth and temperature range for growth were examined as described by Nedashkovskaya et al. (2003b)
. Susceptibility to antibiotics was tested as described by Nedashkovskaya et al. (2003a)
. Gliding motility was determined as described by Bowman (2000)
.
The physiological, biochemical and morphological characteristics of strain KMM 6049T are given under the species description and in Table 1
. The phenotypic features of strain KMM 6049T are consistent with those of S. salegens and S. holothuriorum (Table 1
). However, the strain studied differs from S. holothuriorum KMM 3524T in its ability to grow at 18 % NaCl, to decompose casein and to form acid from D-sucrose and L-raffinose and its resistance to carbenicillin. Strain KMM 6049T differs from S. salegens in its inability to reduce nitrate to nitrite, to hydrolyse DNA and to form acid from D-galactose and D-glucose and the absence of susceptibility to carbenicillin and streptomycin.

Produces no indole or acetoin (VogesProskauer reaction). Susceptible to ampicillin, benzylpenicillin, oleandomycin, lincomycin and tetracycline. Resistant to carbenicillin, kanamycin, neomycin, streptomycin, gentamicin and polymyxin B. The predominant cellular fatty acids are i15 : 1 (12·3 %), i15 : 0 (7·5 %), a15 : 0 (7·9 %), 15 : 0 (6·7 %), i17 : 0 3-OH (8·6 %) and summed feature 3 (7·9 %), comprising 16 : 1
7 and i15 : 0 2-OH fatty acids. The DNA G+C content is 37·5 mol%.
The type strain, KMM 6049T (=KCTC 12263T=LMG 22584T=NBRC 100592T), was isolated from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius, collected in Troitsa Bay, Gulf of Peter the Great, Sea of Japan.
