title: Streptomyces aomiensis sp. nov., isolated from a soil sample using the membrane-filter method.
abstract: A Gram-positive actinobacterium, designated M24DS4(T), was isolated from a soil sample collected from Aomi, Tokyo, Japan, using the membrane-filter method. Strain M24DS4(T) exhibited low 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (96.1 %) with Streptomyces scabrisporus NBRC 100760(T). Cell hydrolysates contained the ll-isomer of diaminopimelic acid and the predominant quinones were MK-9(H(8)) and MK-9(H(6)). The genomic DNA G+C content was 75 mol%. Comparison of the characteristics of strain M24DS4(T) and related members of the genus Streptomyces with validly published names showed that the strain represents a novel species of the genus, for which the name Streptomyces aomiensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is M24DS4(T) ( = NBRC 106164(T)  = KACC 14925(T)).
