N2 - A Gram-stain-negative, non-pigmented, curved rod-shaped, single polarly flagellated, facultatively anaerobic bacterium, designated as SSH23T, was isolated from surface seawater sample collected at the Sehwa Beach in South Korea. The novel isolate required NaCl for growth and grew optimally between 2 and 3% NaCl. Strain SSH23T showed high 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with Reinekea marinisedimentorum DSM 15388T (96.4%), Reinekea marina KACC 17315T (96.2%), Reinekea blandensis KACC 17315T (95.9%) and Reinekea aestuarii KCTC 22813T (95.6%). The major polar lipids of strain SSH23T were phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol. The major cellular fatty acids of strain SSH23T were C16:0, summed feature 3 (C16:1ω7c and/or C16:1ω6c), and summed feature 8 (C18:1ω7c and/or C18:1ω6c). The predominant respiratory quinone was found to be ubiquinone-8. The average nucleotide identity values of strain SSH23T with R. marinisedimentorum DSM 15388T and R. blandensis MED297T were determined to be 72.2% and 69.8%, respectively. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 45.5 mol%. Based on genotypic, phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and phylogenetic analyses, strain SSH23T was considered to represent a novel member of the genus Reinekea, for which the name Reinekea thalattae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Reinekea thalattae is SSH23T (= KACC 21168T = NBRC 113795T).
