• A benzene, - and -xylene-degrading Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, yellow-pigmented bacterium, designated as D2P1 , was isolated from a -xylene-degrading enrichment culture. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA genes showed that D2P1 shares a distinct phyletic lineage within the genus and shows highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to NBRC 102512 (99.2 %) and NBRC 102513 (98.3 %). The draft genome sequence of D2P1 is 5.63 Mb long and the genomic DNA G+C content is 65.5 %. Orthologous average nucleotide identity (OrthoANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) analyses confirmed low genomic relatedness to its closest relatives (OrthoANI <86 %; dDDH <30 %). D2P1 contains ubiquinone 8 (Q-8) as the only respiratory quinone and phospholipid, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol as major polar lipids. The main whole-cell fatty acids of D2P1 are summed feature 3 (C 7 /C 6 ), C and summed feature 8 (C 7 /C 6 ). The polyphasic taxonomic results indicated that strain D2P1 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is D2P1 (=LMG 31780 =NCAIM B 02655 ).
