**Abstract**
A novel, Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, pleomorphic yellow-orange bacterial strain was isolated from a stadium seat. Strain Coronado(T) belongs in the _Erythrobacteraceae_ family based on 16S rRNA phylogenetic analysis, but is both phylogenetically and physiologically distinct from existing genera in the family. Placement within a 16S rRNA tree shows a highly supported clade containing Coronado(T), _Porphyrobacter_, _Erythromicrobium_, and _Erythrobacter_. While this strain has Q-10 as the predominant respiratory
lipoquinone, as lipoquinone (as with other members of the
family, family), the fatty acid profile of this strain is distinct. Coronado(T) contains predominatly C18:1ω7cis and C16:0, a high percentage of the latter not being observed in any other _Erythrobacteraceae_. This strain is catalase positive and oxidase negative, the latter of which is unusual for the other genera present in the same clade. Coronado(T) can grow from 4-28°C, at NaCl concentrations from .1-1.5%, and at pH 6.0-8.0. On the basis of phenotypic and phylogenetic data presented in this study, strain Coronado(T) represents a novel species in a new genus in the family _Erythrobacteraceae_ for which the name _Kirrobacter mercurialis_ gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is Coronado(T) (=DSMZ ???, ATCC ???, NCTC ???)
