Abstract: A novel bacterium, strain EPR55-1(T), was isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent on the East Pacific Rise. The cells were motile rods. Growth was observed at temperatures between 50 and 60 degrees C (optimum, 60 degrees C), at pH values between 5.4 and 8.6 (optimum, pH 6.6) and in the presence of 2.4-3.2% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2.4%). The isolate used molecular hydrogen as its sole electron donor, carbon dioxide as its sole carbon source, ammonium as its sole nitrogen source, and thiosulfate, sulfite (0.01 to 0.001%, w/v) or elemental sulfur as its sole sulfur source. Nitrate, nitrous oxide (33%, v/v), thiosulfate, molecular oxygen (0.1%, v/v) or elemental sulfur could serve as the sole electron acceptor to support growth. Phylogenetic analyses based on both 16S rRNA gene sequences and whole genome sequences indicated that strain EPR55-1(T) belonged to the family Nitratiruptoraceae of the class "Campylobacteria", but it had the distinct phylogenetic relationship with the genus Nitratiruptor. On the basis of the physiological and molecular characteristics of the isolate, the name Nitrosophilus alvini gen. nov. sp. nov. is proposed, with EPR55-1(T) as the type strain (= JCM 32893(T) = KCTC 15925(T)). In addition, it is shown that "Nitratiruptor labii" should be transferred to the genus Nitrtosophilus; the name Nitrosophilus labii comb. nov. (JCM 34002(T) = DSM 111345(T)) is proposed for this organism. Furthermore, 16S rRNA gene-based and genome-based analyses showed that Cetia pacifica is phylogenetically associated with Caminibacter species. We therefore propose the reclassification of Cetia pacifica as Caminibacter pacificus comb. nov. (DSM 27783(T) = JCM 19563(T)). Additionally, AAI thresholds for genus classification and the reclassification of subordinate taxa within "Campylobacteria" are also evaluated, based on the analyses using publicly available genomes of all the campylobacterial species.
