Three actinomycetes isolated from the surfaces of rocks in a medieval slate mine were examined in a polyphasic taxonomic study. Chemotaxonomic and morphological characteristics of the isolates were typical of strains of the genus Amycolatopsis. The isolates had identical 16S rRNA gene sequences and formed a distinct phyletic line towards the periphery of the Amycolatopsis mediterranei clade, being most closely related to Amycolatopsis rifamycinica. The organisms shared a wide range of genotypic and phenotypic markers that distinguished them from their closest phylogenetic neighbours. On the basis of these results, a novel species, Amycolatopsis saalfeldensis sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain is HKI 0457(T) (=DSM 44993(T)=NRRL B-24474(T)).

High-resolution tandem mass spectrometry (HR-MS)-based metabolomic studies of , isolated from the "Saalfelder Feengrotten" caves in Germany, led to the isolation of three ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified type II thiopeptides, saalfelduracin B-D (-) and the known saalfelduracin A (). The structures of all four compounds were determined by comparative two-dimensional NMR analysis and high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry.
