Abstract Lacydonia Marion & Bobretsky, 1875 is the sole genus in family Lacydoniidae Bergström, 1914. We herein describe new species of shohoensis sp. nov. from 2042-m deep bottoms at Shoho Seamount Nishi-Shichito Ridge, Northwest Pacific Ocean.

متن کاملShewanella psychrophila sp. nov. and Shewanella piezotolerans sp. nov., isolated from west Pacific deep-sea sediment.
Two Shewanella-like bacterial strains, WP2(T) and WP3(T), which were isolated from west Pacific deep-sea sediment, were studied to determine their taxonomic position. Cells of the two bacteria were facultatively anaerobic, Gram-negative rods and motile by means of a single polar flagellum. Strain WP2(T) was psychrophilic, growing optimally at about 10-15 degrees C, whereas strain WP3(T) was psy...
