The DNA G+C contents of the two novel strains were 63.6 and 66.1 mol\%, respectively. On the basis of these results, two novel species of the genus Sphingomonas are described, for which the names Sphingomonas haloaromaticamans sp. nov. type strain A175(T) (=DSM 13477(T)=CCUG 53463(T)) and Sphingomonas fennica sp. nov. type strain K101(T) (=DSM 13665(T)=CCUG 53462(T)) are proposed.
