These data are in agreement with their assignment to the genus #Halobacteroides$. Further analysis indicated that #Hb. chitinovorans$ was closely affiliated to members of the genus #Halobacteroides$, and therefore we propose to transfer it to the genus #Halobacteroides$ as #H. chitinovorans$ comb. nov. This transfer would invalidate the genus #Haloanaerobacter$, as #Hb. chitinovorans$ is the only member of this genus. The 16S rDNA sequence analysis of #H. acetoethylicum$ indicated that it was very closely related to members of the genus #Haloanaerobium$, viz. #Haloanaerobium (Ha.) praevalens$, #Ha. salsugo$, and #Ha. alcaliphilum$, and hence we propose to transfer it to the genus #Haloanaerobium$ as #Ha. acetoethylicus$ comb. nov.
