A novel Gram-stain-negative, facultatively anaerobic, non-motile, non-violet-pigmented, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain H11R3 T , was isolated from the feces of Oriental stork, Ciconia boyciana , collected from Seoul Grand Park Zoo, Republic of Korea. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that H11R3 T formed a monophyletic clade with Iodobacter fluviatilis DSM 3764 T , Iodobacter arcticus DSM 100243 T , and Iodobacter limnosediminis DSM 103822 T , with sequence similarities of 98.8, 98.6 and 98.4 %, respectively. H11R3 T grew optimally at 15 °C, pH 8, with 0.5 % (w/v) NaCl. The predominant isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-8 (Q-8), and polar lipids included phosphatidylethanolamine, three unidentified lipids, four unidentified phospholipids, and two unidentified aminophospholipids. The major fatty acids were summed feature 3 and C 16 : 0 , and the DNA G+C content of the genome is 48.0 mol%. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) value between strains H11R3 T and I. fluviatilis NCTC 11159 T (=DSM 3764 T ) is 83.7 %. On the basis of phenotypic, genotypic, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strain H11R3 T represents a novel species of the genus Iodobacter for which the name Iodobacterciconiae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is H11R3 T (=KCTC 62666 T =JCM 33283 T ).
