A Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped (0.3–0.4×1.2–2.0 µm), strictly aerobic and beige-pigmented bacterium, designated B3227T, was isolated from the sediment of a sea cucumber culture pond in Rongcheng, China (122.2° E 36.9° N). Its biochemical characteristics analysis revealed that the cells of this bacterium were catalase-positive and oxidase-negative. Cell growth occurred at 15–45 °C (optimum, 37 °C), pH 6.5–9.0 (pH 7.5–8.0) and in the presence of 0.0–22.0 % (w/v) NaCl (6.0–9.0 % NaCl). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing indicated that strain B3227Texhibited similarities of 95.7, 95.5, 95.5 and 95.3 % to the type strains ofFilobacillus milensis,Piscibacillus salipiscarius,Halalkalibacillus halophilusandPiscibacillus halophilus, respectively, and the results of physiological analyses revealed that strain B3227Twas most similar to the genusHalalkalibacillus. The cells were endospore-forming and comprised an A1-γ-meso-diaminopimelic acid-type peptidoglycan. The respiratory quinone of strain B3227Twas MK-7, and the dominant fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0and anteiso-C17 : 0. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. The genomic DNA G+C content was 38.7 mol%. The average nucleotide identity values between strain B3227TandH. halophilusJCM 14192T(ANIb 69.5%, ANIm 84.2 %) andF. milensisJCM 12288T(ANIb 70.1 %, ANIm 84.1 %) were below the cut-off level (95–96 %) for species delineation. The results ofkegganalysis revealed that strain B3227Tcould biosynthesize shikimate acid, a base compound for the formulation of the swine flu drug. Based on its morphological and physiological properties, as well as phylogenetic distinctiveness, strain B3227Tshould be placed into the genusHalalkalibacillusas a representative of a new species, for which the nameHalalkalibacillus sediminissp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is B3227T(=KCTC 33093T=MCCC 1H00193T).
