Strain CC-SAL-25(T), a non-motile, Gram-negative, red-pigmented bacterium, was isolated from a rare mud-volcano, located in Wandan, Pingtung County, Taiwan. Studies based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the strain clustered closely with Belliella baltica BA143(T) (95.4 % sequence similarity). A menaquinone with seven isoprene units (MK-7) was the major respiratory quinone. The fatty acid profile was slightly different from that of B. baltica BA143(T). The results of the physiological and biochemical tests showed that strain CC-SAL-25(T) could be clearly differentiated from recognized Belliella species based on phenotypic properties. It was evident from the genotypic and phenotypic data that strain CC-SAL-25(T) should be classified as representing a second novel species in the genus Belliella. The name proposed for this taxon is Belliella pelovolcani sp. nov., and the type strain is CC-SAL-25(T) (=BCRC 17883(T)=KCTC 13248(T)).
菌株CC-SAL-25(T)是一种不运动的革兰氏阴性红色色素细菌，从位于中国台湾屏东县万丹的一座罕见泥火山中分离得到。基于16S rRNA基因序列的研究表明，该菌株与波罗的海贝利氏菌BA143(T)紧密聚类（序列相似性为95.4%）。含有7个异戊二烯单元的甲基萘醌（MK-7）是主要的呼吸醌。脂肪酸谱与波罗的海贝利氏菌BA143(T)略有不同。生理生化测试结果表明，菌株CC-SAL-25(T)可根据表型特征与已确认的贝利氏菌属物种明显区分。从基因型和表型数据来看，菌株CC-SAL-25(T)应被归类为贝利氏菌属中的第二个新物种。为这个分类单元提议的名称是泥火山贝利氏菌（Belliella pelovolcani sp. nov.），模式菌株是CC-SAL-25(T)（=BCRC 17883(T)=KCTC 13248(T)）。
