Popis: In this study, two bacterial strains designated F2608T and F1192T, isolated from marine sediment sampled in Weihai, PR China, were characterized using a polyphasic approach. Strains were aerobic, Gram-stain-negative and motile. According to the results of phylogenetic analyses based on their 16S rRNA genes, these two strains should be classified under the genus Psychrobacter and they both show Psychrobacter celer JCM 12601T. Moreover, strain F2608T showed 97.5% sequence similarity to strain F1192T. Strain F2608T grew at 4–37 °C (optimum, 30–33 °C) and at pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 6.5–7.0) in the presence of 0–12% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 4.0–5.0%). Strain F1192T grew at 4–37 °C (optimum, 30 °C) and at pH 5.5–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0–7.5) in the presence of 0.5–12% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 3.0–4.0%). The genomic DNA G+C contents of strain F2608T and strain F1192T were 47.4 and 44.9 %, respectively. Genomic characteristics including average nucleotide identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values clearly separated strain F2608T from strain F1192T. The sole isoprenoid quinone in these two strains was ubiquinone 8 and the major cellular fatty acids (>10.0%) were C18:1 ω9c and C17:1 ω8c. The major polar lipids of these two strains were phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and diphosphatidylglycerol. Based on the results of polyphasic analysis, the two strains represent two novel species of the genus Psychrobacter , for which the names Psychrobacter halodurans sp. nov. and Psychrobacter coccoides sp. nov. are proposed. The type strains are F2608T (=MCCC 1K05774T=KCTC 82766T) and F1192T (=MCCC 1K05775T=KCTC 82765T), respectively.
