Abstract A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, facultatively anaerobic, motile and spore-forming strain designated FJAT-44921T was isolated from red mud collected from Chiping County, Shandong Province, China. The 16S rRNA gene sequence result showed that strain FJAT-44921T shared a low sequence identity (96.6%) with the members of the genus Bacillus. Growth was observed at pH 8.0–10.0 (optimum pH 9.0), 10–40 °C (optimum 20–25 °C) with 0–8% (v/w %) NaCl (optimum 4–6 v/w %). FJAT-44921T consists of MK-7 as the isoprenoid quinone and meso-2,6-diaminopimelic acid as the cell-wall diamino acid. The predominant fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0, iso-C15:0, ­C16:0, and anteiso-C17:0. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidyl glycerol, phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, unidentified phospholipid, and unidentified aminophospholipid. The genomic DNA G + C content was 37.3 mol%. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between FJAT-44921T and other closely related Bacillus members were lower than the recognized threshold values of ANI (95–96%) and dDDH (70%) recommended as the criterion for interspecies identity. The type strain is FJAT-44921T (=CCTCC AB ­2016196T  =DSM ­104630T). Keywords  Bacillus alkalicellulosilyticus sp. nov. · Alkaliphilic · Red mud · Cellulolytic

Bauxite residue (red mud) is a worldwide problem (Graefe and Klauber 2011) which is generated as a by-product during the extraction of alumina from bauxite ore (Krishna et al. 2014). It is often disposed of in nearby engineered impoundments and conditions in these regions are extreme, characterized by high pH, high concentrations of soluble ions with low or virtually no organic matter (Krishna et al. 2014; Gadd and Griffiths 1977). During evaluating the bacterial diversity of such environment, strain designated FJAT44921T was isolated. The 16S rRNA gen
