A novel aerobic, Gram-negative bacterial strain, designated 5IX/A01/131(T), was isolated from waters in the coastal north-western Mediterranean Sea. The cells were motile, straight rods, 1.6 microm long and 0.5 microm wide, and formed cream colonies on marine 2216 agar. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 57 mol %. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence placed the strain in the class Gammaproteobacteria. On the basis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons and physiological and biochemical characteristics, strain 5IX/A01/131(T) represents a novel genus and species, for which the name Melitea salexigens gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Melitea salexigens is 5IX/A01/131(T) (=DSM 19753(T) =CIP 109757(T) =MOLA 225(T)).
从地中海西北部沿海海域分离出一株新型需氧革兰氏阴性细菌菌株，命名为5IX/A01/131(T)。细胞呈运动性，为直杆状，长1.6微米，宽0.5微米，在海洋2216琼脂培养基上形成奶油色菌落。基因组DNA的G+C含量为57摩尔%。对16S rRNA基因序列的系统发育分析将该菌株归入γ-变形菌纲。基于16S rRNA基因序列比较以及生理和生化特征，菌株5IX/A01/131(T)代表一个新的属和种，为此提出新属名盐栖美立特菌属（Melitea salexigens），新种名盐栖美立特菌（Melitea salexigens）。盐栖美立特菌的模式菌株为5IX/A01/131(T)（=DSM 19753(T)=CIP 109757(T)=MOLA 225(T)）。
