Summary: Three novel bacterial strains were isolated from forest soil in Dinghushan Biosphere Reserve, Guangdong Province, China. Based on phenotypic, phylogenetic, genomic analyses and chemotaxonomic data, the strains represent two new species of the genus Paraburkholderia and one novel species in the genus Burkholderia.

Summary: Distinct Burkholderia strains were isolated from soil samples collected in northern Australia, and were identified as two novel species within the Burkholderia pseudomallei complex. These species, named Burkholderia mayonis sp. nov. and Burkholderia savannae sp. nov., display unique genomic characteristics and biochemical profiles. The discovery of these new species expands our understanding of this significant bacterial complex.

Summary: The genus Coniochaeta belongs to the class Ascomycota and the family Coniochaetaceae. Some species are plant and animal pathogens, while others are involved in human diseases. A new species, Coniochaeta massiliensis, was described and characterised, with genetic and phenotypic analysis showing its uniqueness compared to other species in the genus.

Summary: Five novel halophilic archaeal strains were isolated from coastal saline sediments and sea salt in China. They demonstrated typical morphology and growth characteristics and showed high similarities with existing species. However, based on genetic and phylogenetic analyses, it is confirmed that these strains represent five new species. This is the first report of a novel haloarchaeon isolated from a marine intertidal zone.

Summary: Two Gram-stain-negative, facultative aerobic, catalase- and oxidase-positive, and non-motile rod bacteria, strains BLT and W38(T), were isolated from soil and freshwater, respectively. They belong to a novel genus Tahibacter and are named Tahibacter soli and Tahibacter amnicola.

Summary: This study characterized a coagulase-negative staphylococcal strain isolated from the nostrils of a laboratory rat. Through genetic analysis, mass spectrometry, and biochemical tests, the strain was found to be distinct from closely related Staphylococcus species and may represent a new species.

Summary: This study describes a new species Anaerococcus urinomassiliensis, isolated from the urine of a 17-year-old boy with autoimmune hepatitis and membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis. The strain exhibits specific genetic characteristics, is primarily of human origin, and belongs to the genus of anaerobic bacteria.

Summary: Two new bacterial strains, Marseille-P2698(T) and Marseille-P2260(T), were isolated from human stools using the culturomic method. These two strains were fully described using the taxonogenomic approach. Marseille-P2698(T) was identified as a Gram-negative, motile, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped bacterium, while Marseille-P2260(T) was identified as a Gram-positive, motile, spore-forming rod-shaped bacterium.

Summary: A Gram-negative strain, RN2-1(T), was isolated from a Korean forest soil sample. It is characterized as aerobic, oxidase-positive, catalase-negative, non-motile, oval/rod-shaped, and can grow in a wide pH and temperature range. The strain belongs to a novel genus, Limobrevibacterium gyesilva gen. nov., sp. nov., and is closely related to Rhodovastum atsumiense G2-11(T). The whole genome analysis and phenotypic data of strain RN2-1(T) support its distinctive phylogenetic position.

Summary: Two novel anaerobic strains, designated AF52-21(T) and CM04-06(T), were isolated from faeces of healthy Chinese donors using a pure culture strategy. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that these strains clustered with Faecalibacterium species, supporting their recognition as two new species within the genus. Genomic analysis showed differences below the proposed species threshold, confirming their uniqueness.

Summary: This study corrected the misclassification of B. servocepacia according to ICNP standards and renamed it as Burkholderia orbicola sp. nov. The original proposal of B. servocepacia was misleading as the name derived from Latin meaning "to protect/watch over" did not accurately reflect the opportunistic infection capability of the species.

Summary: Genomic approaches were used to study two putative novel lineages of Burkholderia cenocepacia found in the semi-arid region of north-east Brazil causing onion sour skin. Whole genome sequencing and taxogenomic analysis revealed that these strains represent two novel species of the Bcc, named Burkholderia semiarida sp. nov. and Burkholderia sola sp. nov. The strains CCRMBC74T and CCRMBC51T were proposed as the type strains for these species.
