Two new methane-producing cocci were isolated from separate sediment enrichments using a defined synthetic growth medium. A freshwater methanogen, M. olentangyi, sp. nov., was isolated from Olentangy River sediment, Columbus, Ohio [USA]. The organism was a non-motile, irregular coccus that produced methane from CO2 plus H2 and required acetate for growth. A marine methanogen, M. deltae, sp. nov., was isolated from Gulf of Mexico sediments and was a non-motile, irregular coccus that grew on CO2 plus H2, or on formate. The guanine-plus-cytosine content of the DNA of the isolates was 54.4 and 40.5 mol %, respectively.
