Abstract

Abstract Haliscomenobacter hydrossis van Veenet al. 1973 is the type species of the genusHaliscomenobacter, which belongs to order "Sphingobacteriales ". The species is of interest because of its isolated phylogenetic location in the tree of life, especially the so far genomically uncharted part of it, and because the organism grows in a thin, hardly visible hyaline sheath. Members of the species were isolated from fresh water of lakes and from ditch water. The genome ofH. hydrossis is the first completed genome sequence reported from a member of the family "Saprospiraceae ". The 8, 771, 651 bp long genome with its three plasmids of 92 kbp, 144 kbp and 164 kbp length contains 6, 848 protein-coding and 60 RNA genes, and is a part of theG enomic E ncyclopedia of B acteria and A rchaea project.
