Summary: | Four strains (9CBEGH2
, 9BBH35, 6BBH38 and 6EGH11) of Gram-stain-positive, obligately anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria were isolated from faecal samples from healthy Japanese humans. The results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that the four strains represented members of the family
and formed a monophyletic cluster with '
' strain N6H1-5 (99.4% sequence similarity) and
sp. Marseille-P5640 (99.3 %).
JCM 10413
(94.2 %) and
ATCC 25548
(93.7 %) were located near this monophyletic cluster. The isolates, 9CBEGH2
, '
' JCM 30884 and
sp. Marseille-P5640 shared 98.7-99.1% average nucleotide identity (ANI) with each other. Moreover, the
DNA-DNA hybridization (DDH) values among three strains were 88.4-90.6%, indicating that these strains represent the same species. Strain 9CBEGH2
showed 21.5-24.1 %
DDH values with other related taxa. In addition, the ANI values between strain 9CBEGH2
and other related taxa ranged from 71.2 % to 73.5 %, indicating that this strain should be considered as representing a novel species on the basis of whole-genome relatedness. Therefore, we formally propose a novel name for '
' strains identified because the name '
' has been effectively, but not validly, published since 2017. On the basis of the collected data, strain 9CBEGH2
represents a novel species of a novel genus, for which the name
gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of
is 9CBEGH2
(=JCM 33778
=DSM 110575
