Strain C1<jats:sup>T<\/jats:sup> is a motile, facultatively anaerobic, rod-like bacterium (0.8\u20131.0\u2005\u03bcm in diameter; 2\u20136\u2005\u03bcm long) that grows as single cells or in chains. Optimum growth occurred at 25\u201335\u2005\u00b0C, at pH\u20056.7\u20138.4 and in medium containing 5\u201320\u2005g NaCl l<jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>. The bacterium hydrolysed urea and used <jats:sc>l<\/jats:sc>-lysine, <jats:sc>l<\/jats:sc>-ornithine, citrate, pyruvate, <jats:sc>d<\/jats:sc>-glucose, <jats:sc>d<\/jats:sc>-mannitol, inositol, <jats:sc>d<\/jats:sc>-sorbitol, melibiose, amygdalin, <jats:sc>l<\/jats:sc>-arabinose, arbutin, aesculin, <jats:sc>d<\/jats:sc>-fructose, <jats:sc>d<\/jats:sc>-galactose, glycerol, maltose, <jats:sc>d<\/jats:sc>-mannose, raffinose, trehalose and <jats:sc>d<\/jats:sc>-xylose; it produced acetoin, reduced nitrate to nitrite and was positive for <jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic>-galactosidase and catalase. The DNA G+C content was 53.6\u2005mol%. It was related phylogenetically to members of the genus <jats:italic>Serratia<\/jats:italic>, family <jats:italic>Enterobacteriaceae<\/jats:italic>, the type strain of <jats:italic>Serratia fonticola<\/jats:italic> being its closest relative (99\u200a% similarity between 16S rRNA gene sequences).

Therefore, on the basis of morphological, nutritional, physiological and fatty acid analysis and genetic criteria, strain C1<jats:sup>T<\/jats:sup> is proposed to be assigned to a novel <jats:italic>Serratia<\/jats:italic> species, <jats:italic>Serratia glossinae<\/jats:italic> sp. nov.
