Marinilabilia agarovorans (Reichenbach 1989) Nakagawa and Yamasato 1996, comb. nov.

Sequence accession no. (16S rRNA gene) for the type strain: M62422.
Basonym: ¤ Cytophaga agarovorans (ex Veldkamp 1961) Reichenbach 1989.
Other synonym: "Cytophaga salmonicolor var. agarovorans" Veldkamp 1961.
Etymology: N.L. n. agarum, agar, algal polysaccharide; L. v. vorare, to devour, to digest; N.L. part. adj. agarovorans, agar-digesting.

Note: Genetic aspects (gyrB sequences, DNA-DNA hybridization and 16S rDNA sequences) led to the conclusion that Marinilabilia agarovorans (Reichenbach 1989) Nakagawa and Yamasato 1996 and ¤ Marinilabilia salmonicolor (Veldkamp 1961) Nakagawa and Yamasato 1996 belong to a single species. Since the epithet salmonicolor has priority, Marinilabilia agarovorans is a later heterotypic synonym of Marinilabilia salmonicolor. However, the agar-degrading ability of the type strain (ATCC 19043= IFO (now NBRC) 14957) of Marinilabilia agarovorans is a prominent biochemical characteristic; therefore Suzuki et al. 1999 propose that strain ATCC 19043= IFO (now NBRC) 14957 should be renamed Marinilabilia salmonicolor biovar Agarovorans.
