Strain 020920N was isolated from the estuary of the Kaeda river in the Miyazaki prefecture in Japan. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene showed the strain's close evolutionary relationship with bacteria from the genus , in the family . Phenotypic and chemotaxonomic features of the strain were investigated.

To understand the ecological and evolutionary mechanisms of speciation in bacteria, we analyzed the genomic dissimilarities between three closely related species in the so-called Harveyi clade of the genus , , , and The analysis focused on strains isolated from diverse geographic locations over a long period of time. The results of phylogenetic analyses and calculations of average nucleotide identity (ANI) supported the classification of and into two species.
