Abstract: The genus Gluconacetobacter corrig.Yamada et al. 1998 was recently divided into two genera (Yamada and Yukphan, 2008; Yamada et al., 2012a Yamada et al., , b, 2013)).One is the genus Gluconacetobacter, in which the type species is retained as Gluconacetobacter liquefaciens (Asai 1935) Yamada et al. 1998, and the other is the genus Komagataeibacter Yamada et al. 2013, in which the type species is newly designated as Komagataeibacter xylinus (Brown 1898) Yamada et al. 2013.In the genus Gluconacetobacter, seven species are nowadays accommodated (Franke et al., 1999;Fuentes-Ramírez et al., 2001;Gillis et al., 1989;Tazato et al., 2012;Yamada and Yukphan, 2008).In the systematic and ecological studies of acetic acid bacteria, the present authors found that a certain strain isolated from the natural environment of Vietnam was located in a unique phylogenetic position, namely, outside of the Gluconacetobacter cluster (Yamada et al., 2012b).This paper describes Nguyenibacter vanlangensis gen.nov., sp.nov., for isolate TN01LGI T as well as isolate VTH-AC01.The former was isolated from the rhizosphere of Asian rice collected at Long Thanh Trung Commune, Hoa Thanh District, Tay Ninh Province, Vietnam on March 6, 2011, and the latter was isolated from the root of Asian rice collected at Hoc Mon District, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam on November 12, 2011.The two isolates were obtained by an enrichment culture approach using nitrogen-free LGI medium that contained 10.0% sucrose w/v, 0.06% KH 2 PO 4 w/v, 0.02% K 2 HPO 4 w/v, 0.02% MgSO 4 w/v, 0.002% CaCl 2 w/v.0.001% FeCl 3 w/v, and 0.0002% Na 2 MoO 4 w/v, pH 6.0 (Cavalcante and Döbereiner, 1988).When microbial growth was seen in the LGI medium, the cul-
