Abstract
A bacterium, designated strain ZK17L-C2T, was isolated from the leaf tissues of wheat (Triticum aestivum) collected in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, PR China. It is aerobic, non-motile, Gram-negative, rod-shaped and red-to-pink in colour. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain ZK17L-C2T belonged to the genus Hymenobacter and was most closely related to Hymenobacter rigui KCTC 12533T (98.68 %) and Hymenobacter metallilatus 9PBR-2T (98.19 %). Digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between strain ZK17L-C2T and these two type strains were 26.6 and 26.5 %, and average nucleotide identity (ANI) values were 84.9 and 84.8 %, respectively; these values are lower than the proposed and generally accepted species boundaries for dDDH and ANI. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain ZK17L-C2T was 59.4 mol%. It can grow at pH 5.5-7.5 and 15-30 °C, which is different from the closely related type strains. The major fatty acids of strain ZK17L-C2T were iso-C15 : 0, C16 : 0 and C18 : 0. Overall, the results from biochemical, chemical taxonomy and phylogenetic analyses indicate that strain ZK17L-C2T (=CGMCC 1.19373T=KCTC 92184 T) represents a new species of the genus Hymenobacter, for which the name Hymenobacter endophyticus sp. nov. is proposed.

Abstract
Five Hymenobacter strains isolated from air samples collected from the Suwon and Jeju regions of the Republic of Korea were studied using polyphasic taxonomic methods. Using 16S rRNA gene sequences and the resulting phylogenetic tree, the strains were primarily identified as members of the genus Hymenobacter. Digital DNA-DNA hybridization values and average nucleotide identities values for species delineation (70 and 95-96 %, respectively) between the five strains and their nearest type strains indicated that each strain represented a novel species. All strains were aerobic, Gram-stain-negative, mesophilic, rod-shaped and catalase- and oxidase-positive, with red to pink coloured colonies. The genome sizes of the five strains varied from 4.8 to 7.1 Mb and their G+C contents were between 54.1 and 59.4 mol%. Based on their phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genotypic characteristics, we propose to classify these isolates into five novel species within the genus Hymenobacter for which we propose the names, Hymenobacter cellulosilyticus sp. nov., Hymenobacter cellulosivorans sp. nov., Hymenobacter aerilatus sp. nov., Hymenobacter sublimis sp. nov. and Hymenobacter volaticus sp. nov., with strains 5116 S-3T (=KACC 21925T=JCM 35216T), 5116 S-27T (=KACC 21926T=JCM 35217T), 5413 J-13T (=KACC 21928T=JCM 35219T), 5516 S-25T (=KACC 21931T=JCM 35222T) and 5420 S-77T (=KACC 21932T=JCM 35223T) as the type strains, respectively.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, reddish-coloured, rod-shaped and non-motile strain PAMC 29467T, was isolated from freshwater of the pond in Cambridge Bay, Canada. Strain PAMC 29467T was closely related to Hymenobacter yonginensis (98.1 % 16S rRNA gene similarity). Genomic relatedness analyses showed that strain PAMC 29467T is distinguishable from H. yonginensis based on average nucleotide identity (91.3 %) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values (39.3 %). The major fatty acids (>10 %) of strain PAMC 29467T were summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c and/or C16 : 1 ω6c), C15 : 0 iso, C16 : 1 ω5c and summed feature 4 (C17 : 1 iso l and/or anteiso B). The major respiratory quinone was menaquinone-7. The genomic DNA G+C content was 61.5 mol%. Strain PAMC 29467T was separated from the type species in the genus Hymenobacter by its distinct phylogenetic position and some physiological characteristics. As a result, a novel species is proposed, with the name Hymenobacter canadensis sp. nov. (type strain, PAMC 29467T=KCTC 92787T=JCM 35843T).

Abstract
Strain 3F2T was isolated from a soil sample obtained from the surface of Deception Island, Antarctica. The isolate was a Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium, and its colonies were red to pink in colour. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain 3F2T belonged to the genus
Hymenobacter
, family
Hymenobacteraceae
and was most closely related to
Hymenobacter sedentarius
DG5BT (97.0% sequence similarity),
Hymenobacter soli
PB17T (96.9%),
Hymenobacter terrae
DG7AT (96.8%) and
Hymenobacter rufus
S1-2-2-6T (96.5%). Growth occurred at 4–20 °C (optimum, 10 °C), up to 1.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0%) and pH 6.0–8.0 (optimum, pH 7.0). The chemotaxonomic characteristics of strain 3F2T, which had MK-7 as its predominant menaquinone and summed feature 3 (C16:1
ω7c and/or C16:1
ω6c), iso-C15:0, anteiso-C15:0 and C16:1
ω5c as its major fatty acids, were consistent with classification in the genus
Hymenobacter
. The polar lipid profile of strain 3F2T comprised phosphatidylethanolamine, two unidentified aminolipids, two unidentified aminophospholipids and three unidentified polar lipids. The genome of strain 3F2T was 6.56 Mbp with a G+C content of 61.5 mol%. Average nucleotide identity (ANI) values between 3F2T and the other species of the genus
Hymenobacter
were found to be low (ANIm <87.0%, ANIb <82.0% and OrthoANIu <83.0%). Furthermore, digital DNA–DNA hybridization and average amino acid identity values between strain 3F2T and the closely related species ranged from 20.0 to 26.3% and from 64.0 to 81.1 %, respectively. Based on the results of our phylogenetic, phenotypic, genotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses, it is concluded that strain 3F2T represents a novel species within the genus
Hymenobacter
, for which the name Hymenobacter terricola sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 3F2T (=KCTC 72468T=CGMCC 1.13716T).

Abstract
Two novel bacterial strains, designated as BT186T and BT505, were isolated from a soil sample collected in South Korea and characterized. Both strains were Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, aerobic, circular, convex, and had red-colored colonies. The level of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between the strains BT186T and BT505 was 100%, indicating that they represent an identical species. 16S rRNA sequence analysis indicated that strains BT186T and BT505 belong to a distinct lineage within the genus Hymenobacter (family Hymenobacteraceae, order Cytophagales, class Cytophagia, phylum Bacteroidetes, Kingdom Bacteria). Both strains were closely related to Hymenobacter norwichensis DSM 15439T (98.3% 16S rRNA gene similarity), Hymenobacter aquaticus JCM 31653T (96.8%), and Hymenobacter perfusus LMG26000T (96.5%). Strain BT186T was found to have the MK-7 as the major respiratory quinone. The major polar lipid of strain BT186T was identified to be phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). The major cellular fatty acid profiles of strain BT186T were C16:1 ω5c (24.3%), iso-C15:0 (20.3%) and summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω6c/C16:1 ω7c) (19.9%). Characterization based on polyphasic analysis indicated that strains BT186T and BT505 represent novel species of the genus Hymenobacter and the name Hymenobacter telluris sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Hymenobacter telluris is BT186T (= KCTC 72338T = NBRC 114968T).

Abstract
Two novel Gram-negative bacterial strains BT190T and BT191 were isolated from soil collected in Uijeongbu city (37°44'55″N, 127°02'20″E), Korea. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strains BT190T and BT191 belong to a distinct lineage within the genus Hymenobacter (family Hymenobacteraceae, order Cytophagales, class Cytophagia). The level of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between the strains BT190T and BT190 was 99.5%. The strains BT190T and BT191 were closely related to Hymenobacter swuensis DY53T (97.0% 16S rRNA gene similarity), Hymenobacter metallilatus 9PBR-2 T (96.8%), Hymenobacter tibetensis XTM003T (96.8%) and Hymenobacter yonginensis HMD1010T (96.6%). The genome size of strain BT190T was 4,859,864 bp. The DNA G+C content of strain BT190T was 55.3 mol%. Bacterial growth was observed at 4-30 °C (optimum 25 °C) and pH 6.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 6.0-7.0) on R2A agar. Colonies of strains BT190T and BT191 were raised, smooth, circular and red-pink colored. The sole respiratory quinone of strain BT190T was MK-7 and the predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15:0, C16:1 ω5c, summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω6c / C16:1 ω7c) and summed feature 4 (iso-C17:1 I / anteiso-C17:1 B). The major polar lipids of strain BT190T were aminophospholipid (APL) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). Based on the chemotaxonomic, biochemical, and phylogenetic analysis, strains BT190T and BT191 can be suggested as a novel bacterial species within the genus Hymenobacter, for which the name Hymenobacter puniceus sp. nov is proposed. The type strain of Hymenobacter puniceus is BT190T (= KCTC 72342 T = NBRC 114860 T).

Abstract
Three Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, circular, convex, red-colored and rod-shaped bacterial strains, designated BT439T, BT662T and BT683T were obtained from soil collected in South Korea. The phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences of the strains revealed a distinct lineage within the genus Hymenobacter. The complete genome sequence of strains BT439T, BT662T and BT683T is 5,542,738 bp, 5,964,541 bp, and 5,192,601 bp size, respectively. All three strains were found to have MK-7 as the major respiratory quinone. The major polar lipids of strains BT439T and BT662T were identified as phosphatidylethanolamine, aminophospholipids and amino lipids. Strain BT683T contained phosphatidylethanolamine. The major cellular fatty acids of strain BT439T were iso-C15:0, summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω6c/C16:1 ω7c) and anteiso-C15:0; strain BT662T possessed iso-C15:0 and summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω6c/C16:1 ω7c); strain BT683T were summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω6c/C16:1 ω7c), C16:1 ω5c, iso-C15:0 and anteiso-C15:0. Based on the polyphasic analysis, strains BT439T, BT662T and BT683T can be suggested as three novel bacterial species within the genus Hymenobacter and the proposed names are Hymenobacter properus sp. nov., Hymenobacter ruricola sp. nov. and Hymenobacter jeongseonensis sp. nov., respectively. The type strain of Hymenobacter properus is BT439T (= KCTC 72900T = NBRC 114849T), Hymenobacter ruricola is BT662T (= KACC 21966T = NBRC 114855T) and the type strain of Hymenobacter jeongseonensis is BT683T (= KACC 22013T = NBRC xxxxxT).
