Abstract Strain SH-6(T) was isolated from the sediment of Lake Shangmatala, a saline lake in Inner Mongolia (China). Cells were pleomorphic. The organism was neutrophilic and required at least 2.5 M (15 %) NaCl, but not MgCl(2), for growth; optimal growth occurred at 4.3 M (25 %) NaCl. The G+C content of its DNA was 63.1 mol%. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain SH-6(T) is a member of the family Halobacteriaceae, but there was a low level of similarity with other members of this family. Highest sequence similarity (94.6 %) was obtained with the 16S rRNA genes of the type strains of Natronolimnobius innermongolicus and Natronolimnobius baerhuensis. Polar lipid analyses revealed that strain SH-6(T) contains phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglyceromethylphosphate, derived from both C(20)C(20) and C(20)C(25) glycerol diethers together with the glycolipid S(2)-DGD-1. On the basis of the data obtained, the new isolate could not be classified in any recognized genus. Strain SH-6(T) is thus considered to represent a novel species in a new genus within the family Halobacteriaceae, order Halobacteriales, for which the name Halopiger xanaduensis gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Halopiger xanaduensis is SH-6(T) (=CECT 7173(T)=CGMCC 1.6379(T)=JCM 14033(T)).
