  abstract = {{A} novel, {G}ram-positive, moderately halophilic bacterium, oxidase- and catalase-positive designated {F}ar{D}({T}) was isolated from sediments of a saline lake located in {T}aghit, 93 km from {B}echar, southwest of {A}lgeria. {C}ells were rod-shaped, endospore forming, and motile. {G}rowth occurred at 15-40 {A} degrees {C} (optimum, 35 {A} degrees {C}), p{H} 6.0-12.0 (optimum, 7.0) and in the presence of 1-20 % {N}a{C}l (optimum, 10 %). {S}train {F}ar{D}({T}) used glucose, mannitol, melibiose, d-mannose, and 5 ketogluconate. {T}he polar lipids comprised diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, and three phospholipids; {MK}-7 is the predominant menaquinone. {T}he predominant cellular fatty acids were anteiso {C}-15:0, anteiso {C}-17:0, {C}-20:0, and anteiso {C}-19:0. {T}he {DNA} {G}+{C} content was 42.1 mol%. {P}hylogenetic analysis of the small-subunit ribosomal {RNA} gene sequence indicated that strain {F}ar{D}({T}) had as its closest relative {V}irgibacillus salinus (similarity of 96.3 %). {B}ased on phenotypic, phylogenetic, and taxonomic characteristics, strain {F}ar{D}({T}) is proposed as a novel species of the genus {V}irgibacillus within the order {C}lostridiales, for which the name {V}. natechei is proposed. {T}he type strain is {F}ar{D}({T}) (={DSM} 25609({T}) = {CCUG} 62224({T})).},
