title: Reclassification of Roseivirga seohaensis (Yoon et al. 2005) Lau et al. 2006 as a later synonym of Roseivirga ehrenbergii Nedashkovskaya et al. 2005 and emendation of the species description.
abstract: The precise taxonomic position of Roseivirga seohaensis strain SW-152T, formerly [Marinicola] seohaensis, was established. On the basis of data from DNA-DNA reassociation experiments and phenotypic analysis, it is proposed that this strain should be considered as a later heterotypic synonym of Roseivirga ehrenbergii KMM 6017T Nedashkovskaya et al. 2005. Emended descriptions for Roseivirga ehrenbergii and for the genus Roseivirga are also given.
