title: Pibocella ponti gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel marine bacterium of the family Flavobacteriaceae isolated from the green alga Acrosiphonia sonderi.
abstract: A marine, heterotrophic, Gram-negative, aerobic, yellow-pigmented, bacterium that was motile by gliding, isolated from the green alga Acrosiphonia sonderi, was studied by polyphasic taxonomic methods. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain KMM 6031T formed a distinct lineage within the family Flavobacteriaceae. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, genotypic and phylogenetic analyses, the novel bacterium was classified as Pibocella ponti gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain is KMM 6031T (=KCTC 12262T=NBRC 100591T=LMG 22573T).
