  abstract = {{S}train {MS}1, a {G}ram-positive, obligately anaerobic, motile and spore-forming rod belonging to the {C}lostridium genus, was isolated from the feces of a healthy {P}olynesian male living in {F}rench {P}olynesia. {T}he temperature range for growth was 30-45 degrees {C} {W}e sequenced its complete genome and studied its phenotypic characteristics. {T}he 3,560,738-bp long genome (one chromosome, no plasmid, {G} + {C} content 34%) contained 3535 protein-coding and 70 {RNA} genes. {S}train {MS}1 exhibited a 98.24% 16{S} r{RNA} similarity with {C}lostridium amylolyticum, the phylogenetically closest species. {W}hen compared with other {C}lostridium species with standing in nomenclature, it had an average genomic similarity of 68.8-70%, a unique {MALDI}-{TOF} spectrum, and differed in nitrate reduction, motility and {L}-arabinose and {D}-lactose metabolism with most of the closest species. {T}herefore, strain {MS}1 is sufficiently distinct from type strains of the genus {C}lostridium to represent a novel species within this genus, for which the name {C}lostridium polynesiense sp. nov. is proposed. {T}he type strain of {C} polynesiense is {MS}1({T}) (= {CSUR} {P}630 = {DSM} 27072).},
