  abstract = {{A} novel thermotolerant, anaerobic, {G}ram-stain-positive, spore-forming bacterium was isolated from a hydrothermal chimney in {P}rony {B}ay, {N}ew {C}aledonia. {T}his strain, designated {F}at{N}l3({T}), grew at 15-55 degrees {C} (optimum 30 degrees {C}) and at p{H} 5.8-8.9 (optimum 7.7). {I}t was slightly halophilic, requiring at least 0.5% {N}a{C}l for growth (optimum 2.5-3.0 %), and was able to grow at up to 6% {N}a{C}l. {S}ulfate, thiosulfate, elemental sulfur, sulfite, nitrate and nitrite were not used as terminal electron acceptors. {G}rowth of strain {F}at{N}l3({T}) was inhibited in the presence of sulfite (2 m{M}) or nitrite (2 m{M}). {S}train {F}at{N}l3({T}) fermented cellobiose, glucose, mannose, maltose, sucrose, galactose, lactose, ribose, fructose, rhannnose, raffinose, xylose, yeast extract, peptone and biotrypticase. {T}he main fermentation products from glucose metabolism were acetate, ethanol, {H}-2 and {CO}2. {T}he predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-{C}-15:0 and anteiso-{C}-15:0. {T}he main polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, and unknown glycolipids and phospholipids. {T}he {G}+{C} content of the genomic {DNA} was 36.6 mol%. {O}n the basis of phylogenetic and physiological properties, strain {F}at{N}l3({T}) (={DSM} 25904={JCM} 18391) belonging to the phylum {F}irmicutes, class {C}lostridia, order {C}lostridiales, is proposed as the type strain of a novel species of the genus {V}allitalea, for which the name {V}allitalea pronyensis sp. nov. is proposed.},
