Abstract A novel strain of Planctomycetes, designated JC670T, was isolated from a high altitude (* 2900 m above sea level) soil sample collected from Garhwal region in the Western Himalaya. Colonies of this strain were observed to be light pink coloured with spherical to oval shaped cells having crateriform structures distributed all over the cell surface. The cells divide by budding. Strain JC670T was found to grow well at pH 7.0 and pH 8.0 and to tolerate up to 2% NaCl (w/v). MK6 was the only
Rishabh Kaushik and Meesha Sharma having equal authorship and consider as first authors.

respiratory quinone identified. The major fatty acids of strain JC670T were identified as C18:1x9c, C18:0 and C16:0, and phosphatidylcholine, two unidentified phospholipids and six unidentified lipids are present as the polar lipids. The polyamines putrescine and sym-homospermidine were detected. Strain JC670T shows high 16S rRNA gene sequence identity (95.4%) with Paludisphaera borealis PX4T. The draft genome size of strain JC670T is 7.97 Mb, with G ? C content of 70.4 mol%. Based on phylogenetic analyses with the sequences of ninety-two core genes, low dDDH value (20.6%), low gANI (76.8%) and low AAI (69.1%) results, differential chemotaxonomic and physiological properties, strain JC670T (= KCTC 72850T = NBRC 114339T) is recognised as the type strain of a new species of the genus Paludisphaera, for which we propose the name Paludisphaera soli sp. nov.
