Planctomycetes occur in almost all aquatic ecosystems on earth. They have a remarkable cell biology, and members of the orders  Planctomycetales  and  Pirellulales  feature cell division by polar budding, perform a lifestyle switch from sessile to motile cells and have an enlarged periplasmic space. Here, we characterise a novel planctomycetal strain, Pla110 T , isolated from the surface of polystyrene particles incubated in the Baltic Sea. After phylogenetic analysis, the strain could be placed in the family  Planctomycetaceae . Strain Pla110 T  performs cell division by budding, has crateriform structures and grows in aggregates or rosettes. The strain is a chemoheterotroph, grows under mesophilic and neutrophilic conditions, and exhibited a doubling time of 21 h. Based on our phylogenetic and morphological characterisation, strain Pla110 T  (DSM 103387 T  = LMG 29693 T ) is concluded to represent a novel species belonging to a novel genus, for which we propose the name  Polystyrenella longa  gen. nov., sp. nov.
