Fluviispira multicolorata gen. nov., sp. nov. and Silvanigrella paludirubra sp. nov., isolated from freshwater habitats.

ABSTRACT: Strain 33A1-SZDP^T was isolated from a small creek located in Puch, Austria. Strain SP-Ram-0.45-NSY-1^T was obtained from a small pond located in Schönramer Moor, Germany. 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities between the type strain of Silvanigrella aquatica, currently the only member of the family Silvanigrellaceae, and strains 33A1-SZDP^T and SP-Ram-0.45-NSY-1^T of 94.1 and 99.1 %, respectively, suggested affiliation of the two strains with this family. Phylogenetic reconstructions with 16S rRNA gene sequences and phylogenomic analyses with amino acid sequences obtained from 103 single-copy genes suggested that the strains represent a new genus and a new species in the case of strain 33A1-SZDP^T (=JCM 32978^T=DSM 10
