  abstract = {{A} strictly anaerobic, extremely halophilic, {G}ram-positive, rod-shaped bacterium was isolated from the hypersaline (>20% {N}a{C}l) surface sediments of {S}ehline {S}ebkha in {T}unisia. {T}he strain, designated 1{S}ehel({T}), was strictly halophilic and proliferated at {N}a{C}l concentrations of between 5% and 30% (saturation), with optimal growth at 20% {N}a{C}l. {S}train 1{S}ehel({T}) was non-spore-forming, non-motile, appearing singly or in pairs, or occasionally as long chains and measured 0.5-0.8 mu m by 3-10 mu m. {S}train 1{S}ehel({T}) grew optimally at p{H} values of 7.4 but had a very broad p{H} range for growth (p{H} 5.2-9.4). {I}t grew at temperatures between 20 and 50 degrees {C} with an optimum at 43 degrees {C}. {S}train 1{S}ehel({T}) required yeast extract for growth. {T}he isolate fermented glucose, galactose, fructose, glycerol, mannose, maltose, ribose, pyruvate and sucrose. {T}he fermentation products from glucose utilization were lactate, acetate, formate, ethanol, {CO}2 and {H}-2. {T}he {G}+{C} ratio of the {DNA} was 32.7 mol%. {T}he major fatty acids were {C}-15:1 omega 6c/7c, {C}-16:1 omega 7c, {C}-16:0 and {C}-15:0. {O}n the basis of phylogenetic and physiological properties, strain 1{S}ehel({T}) (={DSM} 25582({T})={JCM} 18213({T})) is proposed as the type strain of {H}alanaerobium sehlinense sp. nov., within the family {H}alanaerobiaceae.},
