A new species of the genus Kibdelosporangium is described. This soil organism forms long straight spore chains and numerous sporangium-like structures on the aerial mycelium. The new species has type IV cell walls and pattern A whole-cell sugars (meso-diaminopimelic acid, arabinose, and galactose are present), type PII phospholipids, MK-9(H4) as the major menaquinone, and no mycolic acids. On the basis of morphology and chemotaxonomy, the single isolate is assigned to the genus Kibdelosporangium. The isolate differs from two previously described species of the genus in fatty acid composition, the absence of melanin formation, and many physiological and biochemical characteristics and is identified as a new species. Accordingly, the name Kibdelosporangium albatum sp. nov. is proposed for this isolate. The type strain is R761-7 (= ATCC 55061).
描述了链孢囊菌属的一个新物种。这种土壤微生物在气生菌丝体上形成长而直的孢子链和许多类似孢子囊的结构。该新物种具有IV型细胞壁和A模式全细胞糖（存在内消旋二氨基庚二酸、阿拉伯糖和半乳糖）、PII型磷脂、MK-9(H4)作为主要甲基萘醌，且无分枝菌酸。基于形态学和化学分类学，该单一分离株被归入链孢囊菌属。该分离株在脂肪酸组成、不形成黑色素以及许多生理生化特征方面与该属先前描述的两个物种不同，被鉴定为一个新物种。因此，提议将该分离株命名为白链孢囊菌（Kibdelosporangium albatum sp. nov.）。模式菌株为R761-7（=ATCC 55061）。
