A novel Gram-stain-negative, facultatively anaerobic, yellowish and agar-digesting marine bacterium, designated strain QM50T, was isolated from coastal seawater in an aquaculture site near Qingdao, China. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the isolate represented a member of the genus Colwellia and exhibited the highest sequence similarity (97.4 %) to Colwellia aestuarii SMK-10T. Average nucleotide identity (ANI) values based on draft genome sequences between strain QM50T and C. aestuarii KCTC 12480T showed a relatedness of 72.0 % (ANIb) and 85.1 % (ANIm). Cells of strain QM50T were approximately 0.3-0.6×0.8-2.5 µm in size and motile by means of a polar flagellum. Growth occurred in the presence of 1.0-6.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2.0-3.0 %), at pH 6.5-8.5 (optimum, pH 7.0) and at 4-37 °C (optimum, 28-30 °C). Strain QM50T was found to contain ubiquinone 8 (Q-8) as the predominant ubiquinone and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH), C16 : 0 and C17 : 1ω8c as the main cellular fatty acids. Phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol were found to be major polar lipids. The DNA G+C content of strain QM50T was determined to be 35.7 mol%. On the basis of phylogenetic and phenotypic data, strain QM50T represents a novel species of the genus Colwellia, for which the name Colwellia agarivorans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is QM50T (=KCTC 52273T=MCCC 1H00143T).
