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: In this study, a novel moderately halophilic bacterium was isolated from a grey solar saltern in Shinan, Republic of Korea. The bacterium, named Aquibacillus saliphilus sp. nov., is rod-shaped and facultative anaerobic. It uses nitrates for anaerobic respiration and does not produce glucose acids. The bacterium belongs to the Aquibacillus genus and shows high similarity to Aquibacillus halophilus B6B(T) in its 16S rRNA gene sequence.

Summary: A halophilic archaeal strain, designated C46(T), was isolated from an inland salt lake in Qinghai Province, PR China. The phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain C46(T) belongs to the genus Halobaculum and is closely related to Halobaculum rubrum strain WSA2(T).

Summary: A novel actinobacterium strain SS06011(T) was isolated from a solar saltern soil in Thailand and determined to be a new species of the genus Streptomyces, named Streptomyces salinarius sp. nov. The taxonomic position of the strain was confirmed using polyphasic taxonomic methods and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. The strain exhibited characteristic morphological and chemotaxonomic properties of the genus Streptomyces, such as grey aerial spore mass and major menaquinones MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H4). Additionally, physiological, biochemical, and genotypic data distinguished the strain from its closest relatives.

Summary: Six novel halophilic archaeal strains, representing six new species within the genus Halorussus, were isolated from salt environments in Tibet, Shanxi, and Xinjiang, China. These strains exhibited genetic and phenotypic differences from current Halorussus members, and formed distinct branches in the phylogenomic tree.
