This strain had previously been isolated as a 5-aminosalicylate-degrading organism from a 6-aminonaphthalene-2-sulphonate-degrading mixed bacterial culture. Previously, detection of ubiquinone Q-8, a polyamine pattern with putrescine, spermidine and 2-hydroxyputrescine as the major polyamines, and partial 16S rRNA gene sequencing had suggested that strain BN9<jats:sup>T<\/jats:sup> belongs to the \u2018<jats:italic>Betaproteobacteria<\/jats:italic>\u2019. This was supported by sequencing the 16S rRNA gene, which demonstrated 94\u201396\u200a% sequence similarity to different species of the genera <jats:italic>Achromobacter<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>Alcaligenes<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>Bordetella<\/jats:italic>, and suggested that strain BN9<jats:sup>T<\/jats:sup> represents a member of the family <jats:italic>Alcaligenaceae<\/jats:italic>. Different methods for the construction of phylogenetic dendrograms placed the strain separately from all other genera within the <jats:italic>Alcaligenaceae<\/jats:italic>. Fatty acid analysis demonstrated the presence of high concentrations of C<jats:sub>19\u200a:\u200a0<\/jats:sub> cyclo <jats:italic>\u03c9<\/jats:italic>8<jats:italic>c<\/jats:italic>. On the basis of low 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to other members of the <jats:italic>Alcaligenaceae<\/jats:italic>, fatty acid and polar lipid profiles, and other unique phenotypic properties of strain BN9<jats:sup>T<\/jats:sup>, the creation of a new genus and species with the name <jats:italic>Pusillimonas noertemannii<\/jats:italic> gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed.
